Chemistry World September 2006 Neil Hyatt	Comment: Out of Sight, Out of Mind? The recent recommendations from the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management should prompt a renewed research effort to tackle the problems of nuclear waste storage in the UK.
Chemistry World September 2006 Yfke Hager	Careers: Analytical Expertise After years of jumping between chemistry jobs, Adam Hold created his dream career by setting up his own company to provide analytical services.
Chemistry World September 1, 2006 Katharine Sanderson	Copper Mines and Coordination Chemistry Extracting pure copper metal from low-grade metal ores will benefit from the latest coordination chemistry research, thanks to a molecule that can hold negative and positive ions in place, UK chemists claim.
Chemistry World September 1, 2006 Simon Hadlington	System for Generating Smallest Ever Biopolymer Microcapsules Researchers have developed a technique for making microscopic capsules out of biopolymers. The method, based on a microfluidic approach, can create capsules smaller than previously possible, with unprecedented control over size.
Chemistry World September 1, 2006 Tom Westgate	Whitesides wins Priestley Medal George Whitesides, professor of chemistry at Harvard University, is to be awarded the 2007 Priestley Medal for a lifetime of achievement in chemistry.
Geotimes September 2006 Carolyn Gramling	Corals Adapt to Sea Change When seawater chemistry changes, some corals can change their structural makeup in an effort to adjust -- making them the first creatures known to do so, according to a new study.
Chemistry World August 31, 2006 Mark Peplow	Contamination From Food Packaging `Ignored' A leading analytical chemist has claimed that widespread contamination of food by packaging materials is being ignored by government, scientists, and the food industry.
Chemistry World August 30, 2006 Tom Westgate	Lasers Shed Light on Magnetic Resonance A new way of measuring nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in liquid samples could have implications across spectroscopy and imaging, report researchers.
Chemistry World August 29, 2006 Jessica Ebert	Life in a CO2 Lake A microbial community able to survive in the sediments overlying a deep-sea liquid CO 2 lake could serve as a natural laboratory for studying the impacts of deep-sea CO 2 storage on marine life, report scientists.
Chemistry World August 29, 2006 Simon Hadlington	Bacteria Put New Spin on Micromotors Researchers have used motile bacteria to rotate a microscopic motor made from silicon. The team believes that their system -- fuelled by glucose -- is the first micromechanical device to integrate inorganic materials with living bacteria.
