  1. @CarveHerName Here’s some background on the #FieldsMedal , named after mathematics professor John Charles Fields who is buried on the campus of #McMasterU in Hamilton, #Canada. sitnews.us/MacDougall/082806_m

    Was there a particular woman in #science who spurred the animosity between chemist Alfred #Nobel and Fields’ Swedish friend and fellow mathematics professor Gösta Mittag-Leffler that indirectly led to the Fields Medal itself? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gösta_

  2. Visited #London for the first time and stayed near #UCL (University College London) where Ron Gillespie developed the ‘#VSEPR rules’ of molecular geometry before moving to #McMasterU in #Canada for a long and distinguished career as Professor of #Chemistry.

    I couldn’t resist getting a Rules Vesper cocktail at the nearby Rules restaurant and toasting the memory of my dear old Professor and then collaborator!

  3. A #Chemistry & Chemical Biology professor and his graduate student at #McMasterU launch Tessella Biosciences, a start-up based on a Bioink chemical technology that 3D prints biostructures that better simulate lung tissue for biomedical research and drug development. brighterworld.mcmaster.ca/arti

  4. Acquisition by #McMasterU Library of a rare world atlas, painstakingly produced with hand-colouring and calligraphy in Turkish script; first in the Muslim world using Western cartographic methods. library.mcmaster.ca/news/rare-

  5. This is what you should know: electric and hybrid cars will not save the world if we do not change our deeply ingrained habits of substituting high #mobility for poor #accessibility.

    Transitioning to #electric #bicycles, electric #transit, and high accessibility development patterns is where we should be putting our money. But that would require social science research and alas that is not where the money is.
