Diliana D. Simeonova of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences imparts her seasoned expertise on phosphorus geomicrobiological research

Laban Coblentz, Head of Communication, ITER gives an absorbing insight into all things fusion and the future of fusion energy

Kirk A. Peterson from the Department of Chemistry, Washington State University discusses the fundamentals of in silico chemistry In silico chemistry simply refers to carrying out investigations of chemical processes entirely by computational methods. Over the last few decades, computational chemistry has been an invaluable tool in understanding chemical reactivity,...

Dr. Y. C. Francis Thio and Dr. F. Douglas Witherspoon turn the spotlight on how lower-cost pathways to fusion energy can be attractive to investors

Dr. Jaime L. Toney from the University of Glasgow highlights the vital role of algae in human existence, in both shaping and understanding the planet

A share of £15 million in funding will be available to UK firms who apply research into reducing freight emissions to improve air quality

José Luis Viviente from TECNALIA explains how micro combined heat and power (m-CHP) systems can help to reduce CO2 emissions in rural communities

Experts have claimed that we may have to wait until the second half of the century for nuclear fusion energy Nuclear fusion is a process of superheating the nuclei of light atoms such as hydrogen, causing them to join together and generate massive amounts of energy in the process. Essentially, it...

University of Strathclyde’s Professor Colin J Suckling shares research being undertaken into anti-infective and immunomodulatory drug discovery programmes

The power of asteroseismology – what can we learn from the stars? Saskia Hekker from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research reveals here

Neil Alexander for the Canadian Nuclear Association shares why society should be looking to fusion energy to power homes and businesses in the future

The opportunities provided by fusion should not be overlooked. Here, Michael Delage, of General Fusion Inc. explains the potential of the energy source A cornerstone of any realistic path to overcoming climate change is developing sources of energy that are emission-free, on-demand and economically viable. Such sources would sustain the...

The Center for Electron Nanoscopy’s Professor Jakob Birkedal Wagner highlights the strides being made in nanoscale imaging research

Professor Colin Suckling discusses heterocyclic chemistry research and how it makes a difference. Because I work on chemical biology and medicinal chemistry, most of the Special Reports that I have written deal with science on the interface of chemistry and biology. But in offering perspectives bedded in the field of...

Martin Warren, Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Kent and co-director of the Metals in Biology Network describes how a recent meeting of academic and industrial scientists helped to cross-fertilise research on the role of metals in the sustainable production of chemicals and the removal of pollutants.

Carbon capture and storage is a key player in the challenge to meet reduced emission targets by 2015, according to the Energy Technologies Institute (ETI)

The connecting theme of my contributions to AG publications is heterocyclic chemistry, which in my own work relates to drug discovery and medicinal chemistry, a field in which we have a number of successes in anti-infective compounds and anti-inflammatory compounds. Behind all this, however, lies the science and technology of...

Professor Samuel W French, at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, calls for collaborators on efforts to prevent alcoholic liver disease with the use of betaine The purpose of my current study is to investigate alcoholic hepatitis pathogenesis by utilising liver biopsies derived from a clinical trial consortium. The major goal is to...

Kylie Vincent, Holly Reeve and colleagues at Oxford University are working on ways to make greener chemicals, which with government funding could soon be used in industry We are working on greener ways to make chemicals that are used in medicines, food and cosmetics by using enzymes that are found...

Judith Shapiro, Policy and Communications Manager at the Carbon Capture and Storage Association outlines to AG what the focus needs to be for CCS in the upcoming months… CS has featured a number of times in AG and the last article was published just before all hell broke loose on...
