Supramolecular chemists, can you help me out? Who do you recognise in this photograph from 1994?

I’m looking forward to it - the book was great.

Had you read the book?

Many congrats Tony!

Hanford Site finally turns nuclear waste into glass. Millions of liters of radioactive waste from plutonium production at the historic site await vitrification. Hands wearing thick safety gloves hold metal tongs holding a container with a molten substance pouring out onto a tray on a counter.

More than 200 million liters of radioactive waste are stored in decades-old tanks at the Hanford Site in Washington State. The Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant was built to turn that nuclear waste into glass; it started operating in 2025. cen.acs.org/physical-che...

No Dave you don’t win - not by a long shot. 1972/3?

All the best for a comfortable and quick recovery Dave!

Registration and abstract submission is open for eurobic18.eu. Hopefully we see all of you (bio)inorganic chemists in Groningen - the coolest place to be in Europe this summer (and probably also a bit wet but fantastic speakers!).

Trapping anions within stacks of macrocycles pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/.... Collaboration between UTS, Sydney, Xiamen, Aveiro, Glasgow and Bristol. Well done and thanks to everyone involved. By forming aggregates with anions in water we can get chromate levels down to acceptable levels by filtration.
