Exploring the on-screen image of chemists
From Frankenstein to Breaking Bad and beyond
In advance of my book release next week, here is an article I did for @chemistryworld.com about the image of βmad scientistsββ¦ Iβm particularly proud of the article title π€£ expect many more puns in the book #ChemSky #SciComm www.chemistryworld.com/opinion/expl...

Onscreen Chemistry: The Portrayal of Chemical Science in Film and TV
Lights. Camera. Reaction! How do real world discoveries affect what we see on screen? What impact does the world of film have on how we view chemistry? Are
The countdown is on to the release of my book βOnscreen Chemistryβ - which tells the story of chemistry/chemists in moving pictures from the very beginning up to the present day, charting all the highs & lows. You can pre-order it here for 12th Feb #Chemistry #SciComm books.rsc.org/books/monogr...

OChemistree Winners 2024
Well done to everyone who entered this year. We had plenty of Chemistreeβs to choose from once again! Thank you for sharing your chemistree creations with us, it always brightens up our Christmas tβ¦
We have winners! Well done everyone & thank you for sharing your festival creations! There were many great ideas this year for the theme of "Complex Molecules" Check them out in the link here, and follow the hashtag #Chemistree and #OChemistree

College student at Saint Vincent chemistree
Students at St Vincent created "chemistrees" and I thought if my cat went at it, broke beakers (you have to use real chemicals for a legit Chemistree) and the mixture covering Rocky would give him super powers that would eventually turn me into a pet and I donβt think thatβs a good idea.

The judging is nearly done. It was great to see so many people make the move over to #Chemsky this year. Because many people are still making the move, we also included #Chemistree entries from other social media sites this year as well. Next year we might keep it entirely on Bluesky

Our #chemistree stands proud and tall,
It is pretty to look at, but that is not all,
The amino acids have a message of cheer,
Crack the code for all to hear! @morayhouse.bsky.social @drjohnodonoghue.bsky.social #ChemSky

The fluorescent #chemistree is up & it looks stunning! #FluorescenceFriday We ran a workshop with students making the glowing solutions out of common household substances. From Riboflavin in vitamin B2, chlorophyll from spinach to protoporphyrin IX in brown egg shells. All fluorescing under UV light
