Deuterating fatty acids to treat diseases
Maksim Fomichis currently looking into creating deuterated polyunsaturated fatty acid compounds, with a view to using them to potentially treat a range of diseases. Here, he shows the premise behind his research. A description of his research can be read via the link on the right side.
Twelve women in science
International Women’s Day
International Women's Day was celebrated last week. As last year, we would like to introduce you to fascinating women of science. This year, the focus will be on women researchers who are still active and who have helped to advance the world with their research.
The biggest stories in science 2017
As we head into 2018, it’s time to take a look back at some of the biggest science news stories over the past year. This year’s science news featured poisonous frogs, battery fires, element creation, and more!
The molecular mechanisms behind circadian rhythms
The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
The first of this year’s Nobel Prizes in Science was announced today! This year’s prize in physiology or medicine was awarded to Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash, and Michael W. Young for their research into the molecular mechanisms behind circadian rhythms
Detecting gravitational waves from black hole collisions
The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics
This year’s second Nobel Prize in the sciences was awarded today. The prize for physics was awarded to researchers who contributed to the observation of gravitational waves, ripples in space-time that were originally created by colliding black holes over a billion years ago.
Revealing the structures of biomolecules with cryo-electron microscopy
The 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
The last of this year’s Nobel Prizes, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was awarded today. This year’s prize went to the development of cryo-electron microscopy, a technique that allows the structures of biomolecules to be revealed where other techniques fail. It also gives scientists insights into ...
A Guide to Acids, Acid Strength, and Concentration
Even if you’re not a chemist, you’ll doubtless remember learning about acids back in school. They’re routinely described as strong or weak, concentrated or dilute. But what’s the difference between a strong acid and a concentrated acid? Explaining that is a little trickier than it sounds; in this ...
Developing Cheaper Lab-on-a-chip Devices with 3D Printing
Today’s graphic takes a look at the research ofSarah Hampson, a PhD student from Loughborough Universitywho’s currently investigating 3D printed lab-on-a-chip devices and their potential to be used for disease diagnosis or particle analyser chips.
Nanotechnology Day & Everyday Uses of Nanotechnology
In C&EN
October 9 is National Nanotechnology Day in the US, as it’s 10/9 in the American date format (and one nanometre is 10–9metres). This month’s edition of Periodic Graphics in C&EN takes a look at a selectionof the nanotechnology that’s already made its way into our everyday lives.
The Chemistry of Cold Medicines
in C&EN
Having been struck down by a cold over the past few days, I was reminded of this old edition of Periodic Graphics, which looks at the chemistry of cold medicines. I’m definitely grateful for a number of these right now!
