Our Grand Strategy |
|
The theory of how we plan to make nanotubes sensitive to benzene, explained by Zeila Zanolli. Our concept is to put a few atoms of metal onto a nanotube surface. Theory suggests clusters of metal atoms will get the benzene molecules to interact with the nanotube |

Simon Singh |
|
For those who haven't been following this in the UK, Simon Singh is an excellent science journalist and communicator, who has produced all sorts of good books, radio programmes, TV series etc on a wide range of science issues (I first saw him talking at Sussex about his book on code-breaking and he was an excellent speaker, had us talking about codes over coffee for the rest of the week). However he's run into some trouble in the shape of a libel case from the British Chiropractic Association, for suggesting that some of their treatments (notably for children such as asthma treatments) are 'bogus'. His clarification ... see full text |

Explanation of How a Transistor Works |
|
In 1988 I telephoned a young physicist who had just graduated from Surrey University and who had just applied to Sussex University to study for a PhD with Harry Kroto (a youngish professor in the Chemistry Department). Little did I know that Jonathan Hare would not only end up working on the project that would win Harry the Nobel Prize (for the discovery of C60) but that he would go on to work as a science communicator and end up working on two BBC OU television series' 'Rough Science' and 'Hollywood Science' .
