Too often, discussions over "semantics" are dismissed as inconsequential hair-splitting. But we can't communicate without precise and consistent language. Sometimes new science requires new language and it can be messy working out what we each mean when new terms when are coined. Have your say here!
The 2016 Nobel prize in chemistry was awarded 'for the design and synthesis of molecular machines'. Ironically, we do not know exactly what constitutes a molecular machine. With the ultimate goal of unifying definitions and standardising terminology, Iupac needs your help!
