Prepared Foods February 5, 2006	The Nose Knows Three-year research project seeks to understand the processing of aroma by the human sensory system.
Chemistry World February 3, 2006 Simon Hadlington	High Throughput Screening for Kinase Inhibitors Researchers have developed a system for assessing the activity of a crucial class of enzymes involved in cellular signalling pathways.
Chemistry World February 1, 2006 Michael Gross	Chiral Catalysis on a Chip Chiral catalysis and analytical separation of the resulting enantiomers can now be performed on a single chip. The process could be scaled up to serve in high throughput screening for new enantioselective catalysts, claim the chemists who developed the chip.
Chemistry World February 2006 Michael Gross	Cupid's Chemistry Scientists are beginning to make some sense of romantic love through modern imaging techniques and a multidisciplinary approach involving geneticists, biochemists, anthropologists, psychologists, and others.
Chemistry World February 2006	Careers: Taking Responsibility Anthony Crawshaw talks about choosing a career as an analytical chemist in the pharmaceutical industry and how progressing through the ranks often means spending less time in the lab.
Chemistry World January 30, 2006 Katharine Sanderson	Nanoencapsulation Paves the Way to Perfumed Pants High street fashions and the products developed to clean them will soon use nanotechnology delivery systems to deliver distinctive fragrances.
Reactive Reports Issue 51 David Bradley	Jean-Claude Bradley Drexel University and Blogmaster of Usefulchem.Blogspot.Com This chemist is the creator of a fascinating blog (Web log) called UsefulChem, which aims to bring important and global problems to the attention of the wider chemical community in the hope of finding chemistry-based solutions.
Reactive Reports Issue 51 David Bradley	Protein Crystals Trapped Researchers have developed a new technique for crystallizing proteins, which could open up a whole range of materials to this powerful analytical technique.
Scientific American January 30, 2006 Steven Ashley	Bouncy Proteins Scientists have recently synthesized nature's version of the Superball. Called resilin, the ultraenergy-efficient elastic protein enables fleas to make their leaps, and flies to flap their wings. An artificial version might find use in biomedical or industrial applications.
Scientific American January 16, 2006 Rebecca Renner	Clean and Green Stain repellent fluorosurfactant coatings generate chemicals that have become pervasive in the environment. Chemists, however, are now changing the structure of fluorosurfactants so that they do the job but are safer and do not accumulate in the environment.
