Lots of great chemsky content in @science.org this week, including a remarkable porphyrin nanobelt from the Saywell and Anderson groups 🧪

Ever WONDERED why perfectly seared steak, roasted coffee, or baked bread SMELL so irresistible?👃🔥

It’s not just cooking — it’s chemistry at work! ⚗️

The secret is called the MAILLARD reaction, and it’s the science behind flavor.

It’s #chemnobel day. For me, and for quite a few other people who spent time in the Stoddart group, it will hit somewhat differently this year.

Seems the right time to share a couple of passages from the eulogy I gave at Fraser’s funeral earlier this year.
A screenshot of text that reads: Fraser lived his life at a hundred miles an hour. But it wasn't always the best thing for him or for those closest to him. In an interview following the award of the Nobel Prize in 2016 he recalled his time growing up on a farm and said that that had instilled in him the work ethic of a honeybee. Nobody would doubt that he had that. He also talked about having the strength of a horse and the hide of an elephant; what he didn't mention is that he could also be as stubborn as a mule. He did things his way and was rarely persuaded to do otherwise. This bloody-mindedness undoubtedly contributed to his incredibly successful career. While those who didn't really know him will measure his contributions through the prizes he won, his real professional legacy is not those prizes, it is the people who passed through his lab and shared in his scientific journey. Yes, he changed science, but he changed lives too - including mine and many of those here today. I learned a lot from Fraser: some chemistry, how to make slides for presentations, how to always include a noun after the word 'this', and a few random Scottish words that I'm still not convinced he didn't just make up.

Structural control over single-crystalline oxides for heterogeneous catalysis
Nature Reviews Chemistry, Published online: 28 April 2025; doi:10.1038/s41570-025-00715-5Single-crystalline oxides offer well-defined surfaces, enabling superior control of their chemistry with tunable catalytic activity and enhanced stability. This review summarizes new advances in their synthesis and analysis, and their prominence in heterogeneous catalysis, namely thermo-, electro- and photocatalysis.
