Thanks to “Blogosphere Entertainment in 3… 2…” I have just surfed over to a very interesting post over at In the pipeline: “Decisions, decisions”; a happy (or rather not so happy) discussion of chemists about grad school and getting a job in pharma. Now, you may think about pharma all you want, but this is some […]

Are DNA-polymer-conjugates finally taking off?
Published by February 26th, 2007 in biopolymers, future technology, hipness, literature and nanotechnology. 4 CommentsDNA-Polymer conjugates seem to be taking off these days. Having seen Corinne Vebert’s presentation on her DNA-poly(butadiene)-block-copolymers at this year’s polymer meeting in Freiburg, I just checked up on some chemistry blogs I read and find a post on “On the road” about a similar system by A. Herrmann, who was also present at the […]
RECOMMENDATION A1. GUARANTEE PUBLIC ACCESS TO PUBLICLY-FUNDED RESEARCH RESULTS SHORTLY AFTER PUBLICATION Research funding agencies have a central role in determining researchers’ publishing practices. Following the lead of the NIH and other institutions, they should promote and support the archiving of publications in open repositories, after a (possibly domain-specific) time […]
ISEM - immediate solvent evaporation method
Published by January 6th, 2007 in literature and preparative. 3 CommentsJust a quick link: Over at the chem blog there is a post about doing reactions in a rotovap, increasing reaction speed caused by evaporation of solvents. Kyle posts a creative way to hack his lab’s rotovap for this. The original article on this new method (hey, it is actually a 21st century preparatory synthetic method!) […]
