AI tool creates new framework for sustainable chemistry

A team of researchers at the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ have developed new AI tools to encourage chemists and chemical engineers to make their processes more sustainable.

Mealworms need more than plastic to be a nutritious food source

Mealworms need a minimum level of protein to grow and become a sustainable food source, according to a new study that challenges the myth that insects have superpowers of taking plastic waste and converting it to a nutritionally valuable product.

Large-scale analysis of attitudes towards drugs reveals growing acceptance of psychedelics

A new study has revealed large differences in attitudes towards various types of drugs, with a growing acceptance of psychedelics and strong negative feelings towards more traditional illicit drugs.

Scientists discover smart ‘switch’ in plants that allows them to redirect roots to find water

Scientists have discovered a rapid molecular switch in plant roots that allows them to detect dry soils and redirect root growth to find water. This discovery could help in developing drought-resilient crops and addressing future food security challenges.

New research shines light on need for more than just speed recall in multiplication learning

New research has revealed that learning how to recall multiplication tables doesn’t automatically mean children understand how to apply this knowledge and that different methods of practice can be equally helpful for recall of multiplication facts. The findings could be used to support children’s mathematics learning at school and at home.

Leading chemistry trio recognised for achievements in sustainability

A trio of ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ professors have been recognised for their contributions to sustainable chemistry with an award from the European Chemical Society (EuChemS).

Out of this world planetarium exhibition gives close-up view of the moon, mars and meteorites

A new exhibition will allow visitors to step into the invisible world of space rocks with ultra-magnified images of samples from the moon and mars on display in the planetarium at the Sherwood Observatory.

Scientists sign declaration calling for sustainability to be embedded in chemistry teaching and research

Scientists from across the globe have signed a declaration today that calls for urgent action and collaboration to embed sustainability into the practice of chemistry teaching and research.

Scientists reveal surface structure of lipid nanoparticles that could improve vaccine and drug delivery

Scientists have developed a method for analysing the structure of lipid nanoparticles that could be used to improve vaccine and drug delivery, targeting a wide range of health issues.

Mind the band gap! – researchers create new nanoscale forms of elementary semiconductor with tunable electronic properties

Researchers have demonstrated that by using a semiconductor with flexible bonds, the material can be moulded into various structures using nano containers, without altering its composition, the discovery could lead to the design of a variety of customised electronic devices using only a single element.
