In this episode of Molecule to Market, you'll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Victor Diaz, Co-Founder of Solitek. Your host, Raman Sehgal, discusses the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain with Victor, covering: Falling in love with medicinal chemistry and ending up experiencing the culture shock of North East England! Why Victor fell in love with working on a variety of projects at CROs/CDMOs The benefits of solid state chemistry and its value in pre-clinical formulation development The starting story of Solitek and the decision not to take the easier path to becoming consultants His views on the market outlook and how the application of AI will impact the development pathway Victor obtained his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Seville in 1998 before moving to the UK, where he built most of his professional career. Originally trained as a synthetic and medicinal chemist, he began his career at High Force Research and Medivir. He later transitioned from drug discovery to early development, marking the start of his journey in solid-state science at Pharmorphix. There, he progressed to Projects Director and later Site Manager, playing a key role in the company's acquisition by Johnson Matthey from Sigma-Aldrich. Victor then spent five years as Head of Physical Sciences at Almac, leading one of the largest solid-state teams in Europe and providing pharmaceutical companies with expert support in crystallisation, polymorphism, and material characterisation. After more than 20 years in the UK, Victor returned to Spain to co-found Solitek, continuing his mission to deliver solid-state and preclinical development services to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. He currently serves as Operations Director, driving the company's growth and innovation in the field.

That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn."TH White, from the book The Once and Future King

Regular media appearances made biochemist Jan Konvalinka a well-known figure in Czechia during the Covid crisis, a period he calls the pinnacle of his professional life. A one-time vice rector at Prague's Charles University, he is today director of the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Czech Academy of Sciences – and spearheaded its establishment of an outpost in Boston this year. Just last week Professor Konvalinka announced that his IOCB, in conjunction with others, was waiving licensing fees for HIV drugs for relatively poor countries.

Send us a textIn this episode we continue our conversation with Arianne Hunter, a Senior Scientist at Abbvie, on how her journey led her to a love of organic chemistry and a career in industry. Growing up Arianne, describes herself as a really nerdy kid, who adored PBS kids, and enjoyed exploring the world through her toy microscope. As she grew up and learned more about different career opportunities, her interests bounced from orthodontia to food chemistry. Once she attended Dartmouth College, Arianne was presented head on with the rigor of organic chemistry and gladly accepted the challenge of the course as a chemistry major. The experience opened her eyes and solidified her goal of becoming a chemist. Following her undergraduate studies she received a SMART Scholarship from the Department of Defense, which supported her graduate studies at University of Oklahoma, and allowed her to work as a civilian scientist in the forensics field. Things were going very well for Arianne, but she always had this vision in the back of her mind of going back to academia; this led her to complete the two post-doctoral fellowships from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and California Institute of Technology (CalTech). As she neared the end of her fellowships, Arianna found herself at a crossroads–should she continue on the route of becoming a professor in academia, or should she try something new and jump into industry. Of course, she chose the latter and initially felt torn by the decision because it was at odds with her passion of giving back to the community and supporting first-generation students and minority women in STEM. “I had to come to the conclusion that not every decision is a permanent decision,” Arianne explains. She now sees that with her role in industry as a female scientist she can still inspire and influence the next generation of women in science.

What do you love about the show? Let us know! In this episode of Discover Daily, hosts Alex and Sienna dive into the mysterious craters appearing in Siberia's permafrost. Recent scientific investigations reveal these massive holes, measuring up to 230 feet across and 160 feet deep, are caused by climate change triggering explosive releases of methane gas. As Arctic temperatures rise, surface ice melt travels into underground pockets of unfrozen, salty soil called cryopegs. This builds up immense pressure over years until it cracks the permafrost above and triggers sudden explosive methane releases, forming huge craters.The hosts also discuss a discovery by chemists at UCLA who have upended a century-old rule in organic chemistry. By successfully synthesizing molecules that were thought to be impossible under Bredt's Rule, the researchers have opened up exciting new possibilities for drug discovery and materials science. These "anti-Bredt" molecules could lead to novel medicines that interact with the body in powerful new ways.For the final segment, Sienna explores a study that shows evolution may be more predictable than previously thought. Using machine learning to analyze bacterial genomes, scientists uncovered deterministic patterns in how genes interact and evolve over time. With the ability to forecast evolutionary trajectories, this research could transform fields from medicine to environmental science - enabling us to combat antibiotic resistance, engineer microbes to break down pollution, and even develop solutions to climate change.

Mercedes, Eleanor, and Betsy too.By FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.“Don't fear the waves, fear the undertow.” Emily isn't an idiot so trust her enough to uphold her end of the friendships she's forged.(Two Weeks Later)School has a pattern; first is the uncertainty of taking something new and deciding if you are going to drop the course before the deadline. Then the boredom sets in as you get the hang of what you think you are doing. Finally comes the abject terror that you've committed yourself to a course you hate/can't complete. We were all on the cusp of Stage Three.You could say everyone in the house was a bit stressed about school; when you added in the hormones of the young and things got down right anxious. We dealt with this in a number of ways. We divided up kitchen duty, times for our study groups, and who needed rides to work. For that one day, that Thursday, I was pretty sure we had it all under control.Barney, Betsy, and I are in one corner of the living room doing our history thing while Jesse and his boyfriend Derrick have the other. Mark and Jamie are playing with the X-box, Gina is at work, and Emily and Amber are studying in the kitchen when the doorbell rings. Since none of us are expecting company we look around the room to see who would stop what they are doing to answer the call.Barney losses the battle of wills, sighs and trots to the door. He opens it and stammers something which translates over from Awkward Man-speak as 'hot woman at door'."May I come in," a hauntingly familiar and frightening voice asks. She doesn't wait for Barney to answer opting to push past him and enter the entry hall.I am staring at Mercedes and three thoughts rush through my head; how does she know where we live, what's her plan, and can I reach Jamie before she erupts?"Hey Craig," she purrs at the same time that Emily skips down the hallway with a big smile on her face."Mercedes!" she squeals as she runs up and hugs the newcomer. I would admonish Emily if I wasn't racing to catch Jamie as she comes off the floor."Bitch!" Jamie screams as she thrashes in my bear hug. Since I am holding her arms pinned to her chest she kicks out instead."Please," Emily pleads to Jamie. "We've made up and Mercedes is very sorry about what happened.""That's right," Mercedes smiles mischievously. "I was very bad and I'd like to apologize to both you and Craig.""Oh, to hell you say!" Jamie thunders. "I'm not forgiving shit because you haven't changed, you cunt.""I accept your apology," I tell Mercedes, taking a different tact."Craig, you can't believe this shit?" Jamie gawks as she turns to see if I'd drunk the Kool-Aid."I'm cool with it if Emily is," I soothe Jamie as I back out of the living room toward the bedrooms."You are a bitch," Jamie screams at Mercedes as we exit the room. Once we are in our bedroom and the door is shut I put Jamie down and she promptly slaps me."Don't you ever do that to me again," she snaps."Listen Jamie, it is better to have her and Emily where we can keep an eye on them than have her telling Emily that we aren't really her friends," I explain. I also fail to promise her that I wouldn't remove her from an awkward situation when needed.Jamie vibrates with poorly contained energy, her gaze toward me alternating between impressed and furious. When smoke starts boiling out of her ears I take action. I grab Jamie and kiss her violently, crushing her to me. I give her a little room after a minute."Sex! Now!" Jamie demands."Later," I assuage her, "we have company.""Urr" Jamie responds accompanied with some heavy breathing. My eyes gravitate to her braless breasts, a move that Jamie catches."You are hopeless," she says as she rolls her eyes, but I can tell I've temporarily defused her wrath.I take Jamie's hand and lead her back to the main room. The conversation subsides when we return."So, are we okay?" Mercedes asks sweetly."Sure," I respond. Jamie glares at Mercedes but keeps the peace and resumes her place with the X-box. Emily looks at me nervously so I give her a wink and a smile only belatedly catching Mercedes taking in the whole exchange.I rejoin my study group and we get back to business. I catch Betsy tossing me a questioning look but I indicate that it is a story that takes more than one breath so she lets it lie. Emily and Mercedes go back to their room to 'study' while Amber comes over to the sofa and sits down next to me very platonic-like.I end up being the one to take Betsy home, stopping on the way to pick up Gina from work. Gina is her warm friendly self as she gets into the back seat of my car, hugging me and almost hugging Betsy who barely recoils in time. Once again Betsy gives me this curious look."I have a bunch more girls as friends than actual girlfriends," I try to explain."Of course," she says with a straight face. "It is none of my business anyway.""Wow," Gina snickers, "she's so hot for you.""I am not," insists Betsy. "He's not my type.""No she's not (hot for me)," I add, then, "I'm not?""No, you are not and if he's so hot why are you sharing him with all those other roommates of his?" Betsy asks Gina. Gina chuckles."I'm not sleeping with Craig. He's Mark's best friend and I'm with Mark. So, what is your excuse?" Gina replies."I prefer a prospective boyfriend to have more morals," Betsy informs us. Gina and I exchange looks by way of the rearview mirror."What do you mean Betsy?" I inquire. "I've always been nice to you.""Craig, you sleep with every girl you meet," Betsy explains. Okay..."What makes you think that?" I have to ask causing Betsy to sigh patiently."How many women have you slept with, if you haven't lost count?" she says with a heavy dose of condescension."Three," I fire off immediately. I remind myself that Betsy alienates almost everyone she knows in a matter of months."Do you seriously expect me to believe that?" Betsy replies."Craig," Gina questions me playfully, "how many girls have hit on you?" I have to think about that."A few," I prevaricate. Gina snorts."Mark says that you get all kinds of play at those football parties," she grins."Having some sluts rub up against him hardly makes Craig more appealing," Betsy counters."One; they are not sluts. Two; it was all harmless fun," I grumble."If you say so," she sniffs a rebuff."Betsy, do I bother you?" I inquire. She gave me a serious once over."No, you behave yourself around me and you are pretty smart for a jock," she admits."I feel the same way about you Betsy. You may keep looking at my crotch but you are discrete about it," I tease her. I expect some sort of snappy denial so when she turns and looks out the window without comment I am a bit floored."Betsy, I'm sorry. That was uncalled for," I apologize after a moment."Okay," is her clipped reply."That's good," I tell her. "After all, if you dumped me it would ruin my reputation as a man-whore.""Well," groans Betsy, "we can't have that." Shortly after that we drop Betsy off and Gina has joined me in the front seat, Gina smiles at me and says,"You like her.""Sure I like her but I wish she'd notice that Barney existed. He is so into her and I think he could put up with her crap if they ever got into a relationship," I respond."That's very nice of you. I'm sure she'd sleep with you if you went after her," Gina comments."I think we both know I don't want to sleep with every woman I find attractive," I reply."Don't I know it," she sighs playfully. Getting back is fun to say the least. I really need some quality time with Jamie. Between Mercedes and Betsy I am getting too wound up.Of course, coming through the door Barney 'manhandles' me into the kitchen."Craig, I called Betsy and asked her out on a date," he blubbers."Well, good for you," I smile and pat him on the back."She said yes ... what am I going to do?" he continues to stutter."I imagine you'll pick out a nice place to eat and a movie you think she'll like to see," I suggest."Umm ... okay, right," Barney nods."Barney, relax; this is not the end of the world. Take it one step at a time," but I have a feeling Barney isn't really listening anymore.The thankful thing is everyone else has crashed out so I clean up and creep into my bedroom, hoping for a little comfort. I am about to pad over to Jamie's bed when I see her in mine. As I slip under the covers she moves over ... and I know I've made a mistake."Amber?""Yes," she whispers back. "Emily and the whore are getting busy so Jamie said I could crash here." I remain silent. "Yes," Amber snickers, "she is the dark psychic girl," and by she I know she means Jamie."This doesn't change anything between us right?" I say quietly."No," she answers, then, "Is that your thumb between my legs or are you not hard yet?" I shift around to clarify the matter to her. "Oh fuck, Craig," she hisses, "you are hard as a rock. If you are going to fuck me at least me get my underwear out of the way.""Do you want to fuck?" I all but beg urgently."Wouldn't you rather we cuddle instead?" she tests me. The short, truthful answer is 'no, but would you at least let me get the K-Y under the bed and beat off first', but that's not how I respond. I snuggle up, wrap an arm around her waist and pull her tight. Amber presses her head against my neck and takes a deep breath."Good night," Amber breathes into me. I resolve to somehow will my erection to obedience and I am making some headway, no pun intended, when I hear a woman go off in a very passionate and vocal orgasmic explosion. It has to be Mercedes, the bitch, and because love obviously abhors a vacuum Mark and Gina begin getting busy on the other side of the wall. Now I know what Jesse had gone through last semester.(Friday)I blame myself, really I do. I am so busy getting the story from Emily on how she and Mercedes have hooked back up – Mercedes had come crying to her full of remorse (yeah right) that I forget the other emotional train wreck in my life. Sometimes I think Emily is way too nice a person. An apology led to a coffee, to a walk in the park, to heavy petting at Mercedes' apartment to having sex here at our place.Barney borrows my car for his date; so far so good. He chose one of the nicest places to eat near campus; even better. Had he remembered his wallet things would have worked out, but he didn't, so Betsy ends up paying for their meals. Betsy asks that she drive back to our place to get his wallet, but Barney insists that he drive and of course he is pulled over.That is when Barney apparently losses the ability for coherent speech so he ends up going to the police station with a D U I. Betsy is smart enough to call me to come bail him out; I bring Jamie along to take my car and would have brought her in but she decides Barney was humiliated enough. Jesse is good enough to let me use his car for the pick-up.At the station I meet a fuming Betsy and a friendly officer. After a bit of 'shop talk' about the team's chances next season he agrees to have Barney ROR'ed and he gets to show up to court on Monday to clear this up. The ride back to Betsy's dorm is done in tomb-like silence. At least Barney has enough dignity not to sob."Betsy, I'm sorry," Barney mumbles once we stop to drop Betsy off."Okay," she says curtly then gets out. I can't bare Barney's heartsick look."I'll be right back," I tell Barney. I jump out of the car and race to catch up with Betsy. I find her in front of the elevator."Betsy I'm ... Listen, I know Barney can do better. Please give him another shot," I plead."Are you serious?" she snaps. I nod and to her credit she takes a moment to think it over. She steps into me, puts a hand to the back of my head and draws me down into a kiss. Tentative at first then our tongues began to dart back and forth."Okay," she relents once we break our kiss, "but now we are even for the research paper.""Huh? You came back and helped me with the English paper. You don't owe me anything," I respond."Craig, I would have been lost without your help and I'm smart enough to know it. You would have finished your English assignment with or without me," Betsy relates."Why the kiss then?" I have to ask."I wanted to see what all the fuss was about," she states."I ... well ... how was it?" I inquire."I'm going out with Barney again, am I not?" she smiles. Now I can't decide if that's a good thing or not. Barney is my buddy and I want him to go on a date because his lady wants to spend time with him, not because she feels she owes me something. I guess I have to be satisfied with the hope that this time the real Barney will shine through and impress Betsy with the good guy I know him to be.Barney and I get back without exchanging a word. I have a grand total of a year and a half dating experience and I have never experienced anything like this. Barney is even worse off in the girl-thing than me, so he is of no help. When we get home no one acts out of the ordinary."Barney, Betsy called and she wants you to call her when you got in," Jamie says nonchalantly.Barney looks at me fearfully for an explanation like I'm some guru."Call her," I advise. Like a man walking to the gallows Barney walks over to the phone in the kitchen. The gang (Mark, Gina, Jamie, and Amber) are watching the TV and aren't likely to cut down on the noise. I figure Jesse and Derrick have already headed out for the night.I head to the bathroom; see the door is somewhat ajar so I stroll on in. I catch Derrick drying off and our eyes lock."I need to use the toilet," I inform him. Derrick secures the towel around his waist before walking past me on the way back to Jesse's room. He smacks my ass as he does so."Don't you be play'en now," I tease him which is clearly the last thing he expects me to say. "I know you're someone's bitch."Derrick gives me another look then laughs out loud."I'm going to tell Jesse you said that," he chuckles."What; that you are playing around, or that you're his bitch," I grin."Maybe I'll tell him you hit on me," he suggests."He'll never believe it," I reply. He looks for the punch line and I deliver. "He knows I'm far too afraid of Jamie to ever piss her off by pissing Jesse off that much.""Ha," he laughs again. "I believe it. Jesse's told me about the scars she's left on your back. I'd be afraid of her too.""I'll tell her you said that. It will make her night," I snicker. Derrick heads his way and I relieve myself. I pass Barney on the way back to the living room; he looks somewhat beyond stunned."Everything okay?" I question."Betsy asked if we could try again tomorrow night. I said yes," he mumbles."Good for you," I tell him as I put a hand on his shoulder and turn him around. "Jesse and Derrick are getting dressed."That is code for gay guys doing stuff that us straight guys might not want to wrap our minds around – being confident heterosexuals and all. For all I know they are really getting dressed for a night on the town, but letting Barney stumble in on them probably isn't wise. We return to the living room, Barney takes the recliner and I start to lay out on the sofa. Before I can get comfortable, Jamie and Amber get off the floor and settle in on either side of me – just like old times.(Monday)I'm in second semester Advanced Biology when I get a text from the Coach to contact him ASAP. I muddle through the rest of the class and give him a call in the hallway, or I start to."Hey Craig! Congrats," an upperclassman I barely know says as he comes up and slaps me on the back. I think his name is Tony or Tom."Huh?" I wonder."Lawrence Morgan announced he's going into the NFL draft," he grins. Oh hell, I was supposed to have this responsibility until year after next."Thanks, but I think I should see what the Coach has to say about that," I respond. I hope my smile doesn't come across as too feeble.I toy with the idea of blowing of Organic Chemistry but I think the Coach will understand that I put a high premium on my course load. Besides, I'm not going to blow off Eleanor and Barney. I call the man and give him my decision. He understands and asks me to come around to his office before lunch because there are things we need to discuss. I can't tell if that is good news or not.I arrive at the Coach's office without too much drama. He is on the phone, but waves me to a seat. My Father has been out of the picture for some time so I'm a bit thin on male role models, but in the short time I've known him I think I could do worse than Coach. He does his best to tell you the right thing to do and makes you feel small if you don't do it without saying a word."Craig, I'm prepared to bring in a rising senior out of Fresno State to take the top spot as quarterback," he begins without preamble. "It is not a rebuke of you or your style, but I want you to get a bit more experience before saddling you with team leadership. You may still end up with the top slot. I'm keeping the team's options open; okay?""Absolutely," I nod. I'm neither elated for dodging the burden nor deflated for missing the limelight for another year. I was promised the lead position for my junior and senior years so I'm not really missing anything. "I still want the quarterback slot if I can get it," I add."I know you do Craig," Coach grins. "I also want you to know something. You were right and I was wrong."That catches me off-guard. What can he be referring to?"Mark Quantrill; I know you encouraged him to come here and try out for the team. You were so impressive at All-State I under-estimated his talent. He's become a real asset and it proves I was right about you; you read your players well. I'll tell you something else.""Sir?""Morgan isn't going to last three years in the NFL. He has a fantastic arm but he doesn't play well with others. There is also the fact that this conference has some of the worst secondaries in the nation. Morgan is going to learn what it is like when he goes up against the professionals. I think he is going to have a rude awakening.""He still has the best arm I've ever seen," I counter."One of the differences between the two of you is you both have good arms – his is better – but you have a better head for the game. You know what your people can and can't do which makes you a far deadlier opponent. Besides, you should see our defensemen flinch every time you take a hit. I've never seen a defense care so much for the guy on the other side."By that he means someone on the offense. There is always a rivalry between offense and defense. Whenever one side succeeds in a scrimmage, the other side gets yelled at. It is the way of things. Sometimes we forgot we are on the same team so I make a point of hanging out with the other half of the team when I am on the bench. It is a technique I had learned in high school. After all, you can't win a game if you can't stop the other team from scoring.The phone rings and Coach answers it. He says a few words before catching my eye."Get out of here Dawkins, but I am going to need some of your time next week. We have some recruits coming by the University and I want you to meet them," Coach tells me. The phone rings and I'm dismissed to get back to the scholastic duties.It is right at nine o'clock in the evening when the doorbell goes off once more. It has not been a great day. I became top quarterback and lost the slot all in a few hours. The Organic Chemistry lab was brutal and Eleanor took particular pleasure in torturing me for reasons unknown. It has also gotten a lot more crowded at our place.Miracle of miracles, Betsy is spending time with Barney though I have to keep pulling him aside and remind him to grow a spine and stand up to Betsy. Bowing to her every whim is the surest way in my mind for her to go elsewhere. It is not a matter of domination; if you don't challenge her she loses all respect for you – it is that simple.Like Betsy, I don't mind Derrick all that much. He is a bit of a flirt but Mark tolerates him and Barney is pretty clueless to his advances. Jamie has threatened to put a GPS tag on his ear so that Jesse can figure out whose room Derrick's snuck off to. Despite the age difference (Jesse is a freshman and Derrick is a junior), Jesse is the more adult member of their relationship and usually keeps Derrick in line.No, the problem is Mercedes. She's making hanging out at our place a very regular occurrence. Worse, I think I know the reason and that is that Emily is such a wonderful freaking person. It doesn't stop Mercedes from being a vicious, manipulative bitch – that would be too easy. Mercedes has come to appreciate how nice, beautiful, and pleasant a person Emily is and she is falling into Emily's orbit. Since that makes Emily happy we have to lump it.To make my evening perfect, when I came home from lab today I found out that Jamie has 'borrowed' one of my credit cards to purchase a king sized bed and had our two twin beds taken away; all without my knowledge or approval. It wasn't like I use that card for important stuff – like food, clothing and gas.I'm so pissed with Jamie that I've rebuffed all attempts by her mollify me. She's been sexy, cute, sarcastic and even pleaded but I want nothing to do with her. Even Amber is starting to look worried. Barney has gotten up to get some drinks from the kitchen when the doorbell causes him to deviate and answer it."I ... I" Barney stammers. There is a woman at the door but I sense fear more than lust."Can I come in Mr. Ross?" the woman asks. I leap off the sofa and race to the door."Ah, sure," Barney gets out. Eleanor has barely stepped inside when I wrap her up in a hug and squeeze her tight."Dude, it is Eleanor!" Barney hisses in shock."Yeah, I know," I respond softly. Eleanor takes a half-step back and looks up at me warmly."I guess I didn't make a mistake coming here tonight," she smiles. Barney is dumbfounded."It is okay man," I tell him. "We've been together for a while." To Eleanor, "Come on in and meet the gang."She puts her hand in mine and I lead her back to the living room. Introductions go around with varying degrees of interest. Okay, it is more like 'Who is this girl hanging on me, and why is Craig with her?' because they see a slightly older woman who initially comes across as relatively less attractive than every other woman I've been with.Eleanor flinches when I point out Amber and is decidedly nervous when she is introduced to Jamie and Emily. Emily perks up and turns on her friendliest manner. Jamie grins as well as she stands up and heads our way. Amber is much tenser. This is the woman, after all, that I let break us apart."Hey; The Eleanor, eh?" Jamie beams. "Come over and sit with us," she motions to the sofa.Jamie separates me from Eleanor, peeling her off to the sofa where she sits Eleanor down between her and Amber. Emily detaches from the love seat and Mercedes to squeeze in on the far side of Amber, effectively denying me a seat."Eleanor, do you want something to drink?" Jamie asks."Um, a Coke or some hot chocolate would be nice," Eleanor suggests quietly."Craig, get us some hot chocolates," Jamie commands."Get your own damn hot chocolate," I mutter back."Are you saying you want to sleep on the sofa tonight?" Jamie teases."Are you saying you want to sleep on the roof?" I retort."Craig, would you please get us some hot chocolate?" Emily asks politely. I shrug and head off. Mark and Gina are huddled on the floor and I see him cuddle up next to her."Babe, I love you," he tells Gina. He looks back at my four women on the sofa and adds, "I love you now more than ever." Bastard; like having one woman who adores him is so much better than four who torment and confuse me.I get the water boiling before slipping back to the kitchen door so I can listen in to what the ladies are talking about."It is so good to finally meet you," Jamie starts. "Craig talks about you a lot.""He does?" Eleanor seems both frightened and curious. I'm not ashamed of Eleanor, but I don't share our private life either."It is more like the way he smiles when he's spent time with you," Jamie confesses, "or going to spend time with you.""He sees us all the time," Emily chimes in, "so we know he makes a special effort to spend the night with you when he can." Eleanor now looks embarrassed and confused."Amber," gulps Eleanor, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry I messed up you and Craig's relationship and I'm sorry I didn't have the courage to come talk to you sooner." Amber stares at her somewhat blank-faced. I really have no idea what is going on inside her head at the moment."It is okay," Amber sighs. "It isn't like you tied him down. Craig made his own decisions and I made mine.""Okay, I admit I hated you when Craig and I first broke up – really hated you," Amber continues. Eleanor is back to being frightened. "I was upset he wouldn't dump you. Over time I realized that wouldn't be Craig. Hell, I got between him, Jamie and Emily and the world didn't end.""Thank you, I think," Eleanor responds tentatively. "That sort of leads up to one of the two reasons why I came here tonight; I wanted to meet all of you – Craig talks about you all the time.""All the time?" teases Jamie. "I sincerely doubt when you two are sexing it up in bed he's thinking about anything but you." Eleanor flushes a furious shade of red."I --," stammers Eleanor."So, has he started tying you down yet?" Jamie leans in eagerly. Eleanor's mouth falls open."That would be a big 'Yes'," taunts Amber. The water starts boiling so I miss part of the conversation. When I get back I'm feeling like a damn waiter. Shouldn't a major university's potential starting quarterback be accorded more respect?"Thanks," Jesse smirks as he takes his mug. "Are you sure it was wise to give your other girlfriend your home address so she could hook up with your other current and your ex-girlfriends?""Don't' do the crime if you can't do the time," I quote."Dude, I like you," Jesse laughs. "That is the exact same look you had on your face right before those two linemen from Central buried your ass last season. No fear!""Hey, I got the ball off, didn't I?" I chuckled. I had my wisdom teeth knocked down my throat for an eight yard gain – not my finest moment. I finish up by circling back to the ladies then prop the tray against the side of the sofa before settling down on the floor. I elect to position myself between Eleanor's and Amber's legs because if anyone deserves to kick me its Amber.Eleanor puts a hand on my head and flexes her hand in my hair in a caring gesture."You've got it bad," Jamie tells Eleanor."What?" Eleanor questions."It is same look I get when I wake up to hear him snoring softly next to me and I suddenly realize he's there for me," Jamie relates."For me it was the night of the Prom," Amber adds. "We had gone to the lake after the dance. I felt that first shiver and he had his coat around my shoulders before I could even think to let him know. That's when I figured out he was looking out for me even when I wasn't looking out for myself.""I'm not Houdini," I sigh. "I could feel the cold breeze coming off the water and if I was cold you probably were too.""Craig," Eleanor murmurs, "you lost that argument when you put me on your lap when I had the flu. It was a dumb thing for an athlete to do but it was exactly what I needed."Amber and Eleanor getting along famously is freaking me out so I change the subject."So Eleanor, you said there was a second reason for coming over tonight?""Yes," she sighs. "I have been accepted for a doctoral program in Chicago; I'm heading there at the end of the semester."I twist around, get on my knees and settle between her legs with my face within inches of hers."Congrats Babe," I beam. "I know this is what you've been working for." I'm about to kiss her when Mercedes chimes in in a sinister probing voice."So, to be accepted you had to have finished your Master's program. When did that happen?""Last year," Eleanor replies weakly."So, why have you been hanging around?" Mercedes persists. I know the answer to that."I hope I can make your last few months here as memorable as possible," I promise Eleanor."That is incredibly insane, stupid ... and desperately romantic," Betsy admits. "Barney, - pay attention.""Sorry," Barney gulps. "I'm still dealing with the fact that I went through a semester of hell with Craig for no good reason.""I apologize for deceiving you Barney," Eleanor responds, "but I would have ridden you both just as hard. You both want to consider a Master's program and that means as high a GPA as possible, especially in the Sciences.""Speaking of being ridden hard, Eleanor you are spending the night?" Jamie inquires boldly."I couldn't," protests Eleanor who is finding it difficult to stand with me in her face. "I have classes tomorrow ... and stuff.""I have a friend who has a friend in the National Weather Service," Jamie counters. "They say that big storm is coming quicker and harder than projected by the local weather wonk. He says we should get dumped on somewhere between eight and ten tomorrow morning and expect around thirty inches!" The last was pronounced with a Donner Party glee."I had better be going," Betsy states.Barney is struggling to say something but Emily is ready with the hospitality."Come on and stay with us. You don't want to be stuck in the dorm if the power goes out.""Where would I stay if I remained here?" Betsy asks skeptically. The obvious answer (and the one least likely to happen) is that she stays with Barney."You could stay in our room," Gina offers. "We never use the other bed." Mark isn't jumping for joy over her suggestion but isn't totally put out by the turn of events either."Fine," Betsy accepts a bit too eagerly for my taste, or maybe I'm learning to distrust women; I'm not sure."Whose bed would I sleep in?" Eleanor inquires quietly."I tell you what," Jamie grins sweetly, "I'll take you back to our room and if you can pick out which bed is his you can spend the night with him." No one steps up to help Eleanor (tell her that our room has only one bed) and since I want her to stay, I stay quiet as well.

Join us for this look into materials chemistry, developed under the guiding principles of sustainability and a systems approach.Dr. Zlatka Stoeva, Co-founder and Managing Director of DZP Technologies, discovered her love of chemistry out of boredom as a child. She then traveled to unknown lands to master her science and discover the value of mentors while doing amazing work on lithium-ion battery chemistry. A stint in the technology transfer office at Cambridge showed her how fundamental research can be translated into real-world solutions that can change lives, and this inspired her to start her own company.In providing CRO services and developing IP to help companies address market needs using unique materials, Stoeva and her colleagues approach problems with a systems mindset that is common in engineering, but not always chemistry. We hear about their work in “plastic electronics” that leverage biological materials and consider sustainability aspects while delivering results. We also hear about their exciting work using graphene materials to produce digitized materials that can code information about how they're made and their interactions with the environment.Check out this great episode that balances a wonderful personal story, amazing science, and great bits of advice to guide your science and career development!Related episodes:Season 5, Ep.1: Batteries unplugged: past, present and the electrifying futureSeason 4, Ep.4: Women in chemistry: learnings from one of the greatestSeason 4, Ep.2: The father of green chemistrySeason 3, Ep.9: Energy harvesting and self-sustainable greenhousesSeason 2, Ep.8: Sustainability as an entrepreneurial choiceSeason 2, Ep.3: Rethinking catalysisBonus content!Access bonus content curated by this episode's guest by visiting www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast for links to recent publications, podcasts, books, videos and more.View the video of this episode on www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast.A free thank you gift for our listeners!Request your free Bringing Chemistry to Life t-shirt on our episode website.Use code cHeMcas+ng in October and KemThrReDs in November.

Two emerging start-ups, Clia and Orgo, have today been announced as winners of the 2024 NovaUCD Student Enterprise Competition, an intensive 4-week accelerator programme for student entrepreneurs, at University College Dublin (UCD). Following pitches to a judging panel at the culmination of the competition, Clia, an emerging medtech start-up, was named winner of the €3k Tech Sustainability Prize sponsored by Terra Solar and Orgo, an emerging edtech start-up, was named winner of the €3k One to Watch Prize sponsored by NovaUCD. Clia is developing software-as-a-service, which plugs into existing cardiac rehabilitation services to improve support and treatment for people at risk of cardiac disease. Using wearable health data Clia aims to track and provide insights in heart health, offering links to structured exercise services and give check-ups with cardiac specialist physiotherapists. The founders of Clia are physiotherapists, Rory Lambe and Ben O'Grady, who are currently research masters students, investigating wearable technology, in the UCD School of Public Health, Physiotherapy and Sports Science under the supervision of Dr Cailbhe Doherty. Rory Lambe said, "We are delighted to have been named the winner of the Tech Sustainability Prize at the conclusion of the 2024 NovaUCD Student Enterprise Competition, especially as the quality of the participating ventures was very high." Ben O'Grady added, "Wearable health data is a rapidly expanding industry. At Clia, we are building a team of exercise specialists in wearable data accuracy who have worked in the Irish healthcare and cardiac rehab systems to monitor heart health and to ultimately improve cardiac health and reduce cardiac disease in line with the UN SDG 3, Good Health and Well-Being." He concluded, "We are passionate about health, technology and innovation, and our vision at Clia is central to this. We aim to validate and progress our concept to bring our research knowledge in wearable health to market with the goal of improving heart health and wellness." Orgo is developing a mobile e-learning platform focused on Organic Chemistry to enable students across the academic spectrum to become comfortable with the subject. The mobile app will help students with bite-size lessons and revision questions to ensure success throughout their college careers. The founder of Orgo is Zackary Musumeci, currently a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology undergraduate student in the UCD College of Science. Zackary Musumeci said, "It is a great honour to have been named the winner of the One to Watch Prize at the end of the 2024 NovaUCD Student Enterprise Competition, given the many fantastic early-stage student start-ups which took part in this year's competition." He added, "A key reason for high attrition rates among students of health sciences or medicine is the difficulty of preparatory course content, particularly Organic Chemistry. This subject is fundamental to these students, but it can be unintuitive and requires extensive practice, which requires a significant time investment. With Orgo studying for Organic Chemistry is easier than ever. Our solution consists of a mobile app that includes a gamified learning experience with bite-sized lectures and revision content. This allows students to get practice in at any time of the day. With long term learning, consistency is key even if students are only using the app for a few minutes a day." He concluded, "My future plan with Orgo is to try and build out a full prototype by the end of the summer. With consumer facing apps, especially ones that prioritise education, having the best possible user experience is a must. I am looking for talent to assist me to this end and wish to take this idea as far as I can." The annual NovaUCD Student Enterprise Competition is delivered by NovaUCD as a framework to mentor and support undergraduate and postgraduate students who want to work together to develop and grow start-up companies.

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Dave Collum back to the show. Dave is a professor of chemistry at Cornell University and associate editor of the Journal of Organic Chemistry. He's outspoken about many topics and issues ranging from finance to politics and everything in between. And he brings this same no-holds-barred attitude to today's podcast. Dave starts off by discussing the link between vaccines and autism, why "live" attenuated vaccines are better than "dead" ones, and the effects of the COVID-19 vaccine. He specifically mentions how children in the U.S. receive about 72 vaccinations during childhood, while children in Europe receive only three. He also argues that the war in Ukraine is a direct result of NATO interfering and forcing Russian President Vladimir Putin's hand. (5:31) Next, Dave talks all about the U.S. government. He breaks down why the U.S. has never supported burgeoning democracies abroad and why it's a better move geopolitically for the country to work with a single leader or a select few in power. He compares President Joe Biden with former President Donald Trump and asserts that Biden wouldn't be able to make tough calls in a time of crisis. After, Dave makes his case for why we're headed for a 40-year bear market that will drag down Americans' standard of living. (24:27) Lastly, Dave contends that AI risks taking the human element out of everything, dampening creativity, and cluttering scientific literature. He then discusses the role of pedophilia in geopolitics and the prevalence of child trafficking. And he leaves younger listeners with some sage financial advice. (45:39) Dan and Corey close the show by discussing the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge – the core personal consumption expenditures ("PCE") index. The newest core PCE data shows that inflation has stabilized at 2.8% for the past three readings. Even though this is down from much higher levels in 2022, Dan and Corey point out that everyday consumers are still struggling with far higher prices while their paychecks don't keep pace. (1:11:12)

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Dave Collum back to the show. Dave is a professor of chemistry at Cornell University and associate editor of the Journal of Organic Chemistry. He's outspoken about many topics and issues ranging from finance to politics and everything in between. And he brings this same no-holds-barred attitude to today's podcast. Dave starts off by discussing the link between vaccines and autism, why "live" attenuated vaccines are better than "dead" ones, and the effects of the COVID-19 vaccine. He specifically mentions how children in the U.S. receive about 72 vaccinations during childhood, while children in Europe receive only three. He also argues that the war in Ukraine is a direct result of NATO interfering and forcing Russian President Vladimir Putin's hand. (5:31) Next, Dave talks all about the U.S. government. He breaks down why the U.S. has never supported burgeoning democracies abroad and why it's a better move geopolitically for the country to work with a single leader or a select few in power. He compares President Joe Biden with former President Donald Trump and asserts that Biden wouldn't be able to make tough calls in a time of crisis.

I am pretty sure I would have enjoyed my high school chemistry classes more if they had been taught by my guest Peter Kindfield, who shares his methodology and approach in outdoor learning.  His experiences demonstrate again how important our work is, for all of us in this field, and to discuss these topics, because I believe we are piloting the future models of early childhood, elementary and middle school education. It's a natural 'next step' to give ourselves opportunities to go deeper into our observations of nature and team building, communication and the scientific method. We are seeing mythology and creative writing/language arts being shared in ways that get substantial outcomes, and we know that the power of social and emotional learning can be greatly enhanced through a focus on learning outside.    In this episode, we cover a lot of ground that hasn't really been explored in most 'nature education' circles, and it's always fun to hear the thoughts of a person who continues to work on the front lines.    Connect with Peter: https://peterkindfieldphd.substack.com https://hilltopeducation.com/ https://www.deepadaptation.info/ Join the Forest Educator Patreon! https://patreon.com/ForestEducatorPodcast Connect with Ricardo: https://www.foresteducator.com/ https://www.theforestboxforkids.com/ https://www.hawkcircle.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ricardo-sierra-5980931/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_forest_educator_podcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RicardohawkSierra

Maitland Jones Jr. wanted to be tennis player. At thirteen he attempted to enlist his parents into chauffeuring him around the east coast junior tennis circuit, to which they replied, “get a job kid.” That summer Maitland's first job was bottle washer and gofer for chemistry giants Laurence H. Knox and William von Eggers Doering, at their Hickrill Chemical Research laboratory in Katonah New York.  Complex chemistry equations that were once meaningless scribbles on the laboratory blackboard began to make sense over the next five to six years. Maitland enrolled at Yale to study chemistry, following his formative mentors Knox and Doering, where he journeyed deeper into his craft during a postdoctoral year with his famous teachers and followed with a second year at the University of Wisconsin under the guidance of Dr. Jerry Berson.  Over the span of 43 years Maitland collaborated with undergraduates, graduate students, postdoctoral and visiting fellows to write 225 published papers and books while at “Jones Alley,” the Princeton Lab where they explored and discovered reactive intermediates including carbenes, quantum molecular reactions, carboranes, and heterocycles—with a focus on “how electrons talked to each other.”   During his teaching career Maitland experimented with the elimination of large lecture “talking head” style teaching, breaking students into small groups, providing an environment of problem solving, and fostering scientific discovery through the exploration and distillation of disparate information. Professor Jones is the author of five books including, Organic Chemistry, (2014) published by W.W Norton, now in its fifth edition-- the prominent textbook taught to students across the globe. Today Maitland is following a parallel passion sparked during a performance by jazz innovator, the incomparable-- Thelonious Monk, at the NYC's Five Spot jazz club in 1957. Maitland is a regular in New York's jazz scene, and hosts Jazz Nights featuring evenings of great music at his home in New Jersey.  He co-produced Monk's Dreams: The Complete Compositions of Thelonious Sphere Monk, available on both compact disc and digital download. It's our extreme pleasure to welcome Dr. Maitland “Mait” Jones Jr. to this episode of Intrinsic Drive®.

In this episode we speak with Ars Notoria translator Matthias castle about this intriguing work of medieval angelic magic focused on obtaining knowledge and wisdom. Where did it come from? What does it do? Can you use it to learn Organic Chemistry? What is "angel water"? These and many more questions are answered. The 13th-century magical treatise Ars Notoria offers a secret account of the angel Pamphilius revealing the sacred magic to King Solomon by which he gained his famed wisdom and learning, thereby expanding upon the biblical narrative in which Solomon received a vision of God. Solomon's writings were transmitted to the first-century philosopher, Apollonius of Tyana, who provided a commentary entitled the Golden Flowers (Flores Aurei), which is contained within Ars Notoria.The magical text presents a complete system of angelic magic consisting of prayers addressed to angels, using figures called notae, for the purpose of acquiring scholastic and heavenly knowledge. Due to its rising popularity among university students, the magical ritual was reworked time and again, producing five treatises, dating from the 13th to 15th centuries; The Work of Works (Opus Operum), the Book of Flowers of Heavenly Teaching composed by the French Benedictine monk named John of Morigny, The Short Art (Ars Brevis), the abridged version attributed to Thomas of Toledo, and The Pauline Art (Ars Paulina), thereby establishing an entire notorial art tradition.In this new and complete translation of Ars Notoria, based on Julien Veronese's critical Latin edition, translator Matthias Castle presents the classic magical text, both short and long versions, including four of the later treatises. Castle explains how these theurgic ritual practices were performed, giving special attention to all the original pictorial figures (notae), and how the art of memory relates to angelic magic. Providing practical instruction, extensive commentary, and in-depth background research and annotations, Ars Notoria: The Notory Art of Solomon is an essential sourcebook on angelic magic for scholar and magician alike. #solomonicmagic #solomonicmagick #grimoire #magick #ceremonialmagic #ceremonialmagick #angels #angelicmagic #medievalmagic #astrologicalmagic #occult #occultism #esotericbooks #esoteric #esotericism --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantcunning/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantcunning/support

With four seasons under our belt, we've heard some amazing stories about how our guests have found, or often “stumbled” into, their careers in science. We've also had many conversations where past guests have passionately discussed the importance of their early career teachers as well as what teaching does for them in their current careers. This conversation is squarely centered on these two topics, with a good dose of photochemistry mixed in too. We meet Dr. Izzy Lamb, Assistant Professor at Fort Lewis College, which is a small liberal arts school in Colorado with a primarily undergraduate student population. Izzy is entertainingly forthright in admitting that he's often a bit surprised by his success in chemistry given that he was failing the topic in high school and was later accepted to only one of the six graduate programs he applied to. However, our conversation quickly uncovers why Izzy has been successful in what matters most to him—exploring photochemistry and training the next generation of chemists. Join us for this engaging look at how Izzy has built a thriving career in chemistry through perseverance, passion, and knowing what matters most to him. We learn about his career in photocatalysis and how he's now adapting his research to better fit the resources and undergraduate students where he's now working. A passion for teaching students in a way that gets them thinking and equipped to solve real-world problems is his priority, and we learn how he's using a passion for understanding quantum yields of photochemical reactions to help inform more sustainable ways of doing chemistry.Related episodes: Season 1, Ep.2: Reinventing plastics, one reaction at a time Season 3, Ep.1: Fuel the world with light -  the wonders of nano-magnesiumSeason 3, Ep.9: Energy harvesting and self-sustainable greenhousesBonus content!Access bonus content curated by this episode's guest by visiting www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast for links to recent publications, podcasts, books, videos and more.View the video of this episode on www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast.A free thank you gift for our listeners! Visit the episode website and request your free Bringing Chemistry to Life t shirt.Use Podcast Code:  Ba++ery in January 2024 or liV4chem in February We read every email so please share your questions and feedback with us!

In this episode, organic chemistry Professor Scott Snyder discusses his career path to becoming a faculty at the University of Chicago. He describes science as "in his DNA" and discusses first falling in love with organic chemistry as an undergrad, a fruitful Ph.D. experience, and a professional career path that has included teaching at Columbia University, Scripps Research Institute, and now at the University of Chicago. Listen to Professor Snyder share how he juggles his various hats from co-authoring textbooks, leading a research lab, and working in an administrative role, but continues to enjoy organic chemistry though movies, the kitchen, and exercising.

When I say there are many different flavors and styles of continuous improvement, Design for Six Sigma is the type of style and flavor variation I am thinking of. Product development is hard to achieve. It is also expensive, as almost every company has a graveyard of product development failures. Kris Stokes teaches organizations and people the principles of Design for Six Sigma, and he says that product development success takes rethinking many of our assumptions about what we know, how we know it, and most importantly, identifying our hidden assumptions. He joined me at the Edges of  Lean to share his knowledge with us. Kris Stokes     Kris Stokes is a Principal Consultant at Geisys Ventures, specializing in product development and process optimization. With a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from MIT, he brings extensive experience in the plastics industry.

Pat Scannon is one among the few who have earned a Ph.D. and then, separately, an M.D. His passion for both chemistry and medicine goes back to his childhood roots. His father was a US Army Colonel and his Romanian-born mother went to medical school in Leipzig during World War II. Pat spent memorable years growing up in post-war Europe. Years later, he earned his BS in Chemistry from the University of Georgia. He was in R.O.T.C and received a commission as a 2nd Lt. in the U.S. Army upon graduation. Then he earned a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley. A few months before his graduation, Pat realized the potential of using his chemistry training in medicine during an era pre-biotech and decided to apply to medical school. He returned to his home state and spent the second half of the 1970's earning his medical degree from the Medical College of Georgia. Pat is a board-certified physician in Internal Medicine. He completed his residency and fulfilled his military duty as a major at the Letterman Army Medical Center and the Letterman Army Institute of Research on the Presidio of San Francisco. Pat founded Project Recover, formerly BentProp, after a trip to Palau in 1993. He and his wife, Susan, a dive instructor, were invited there to help locate the Japanese trawler George H.W. Bush sunk in 1944. They found the trawler more quickly than expected and documented it had been an armed vessel. After the rest of the dive team left, Pat hired a guide to show them other artifacts from World War II. It was then that Pat first saw the 65-foot wing of an American B-24 bomber lying in shallow water along a coral island in Palau. Other than leading him to it, the guide could give Pat no information about the wing. For Pat, the wing was more than a hunk of metal. It represented a forgotten battle and brave men who had fought and died there. It represented stories lost to the chaos of war, the annals of time, and the secret stillness of a watery grave. All were stories unknown to the airmen's families. This moment marks the inception of The BentProp Project which is now known as Project Recover. Project Recover is a collaborative effort to enlist 21st-century science and technology in a quest to find and repatriate Americans missing in action since World War II, in order to provide recognition and closure for families and the Nation.
