- 👃🧬 Scientists are using cryo-electron #microscopy to visualize how scent #molecules bind to receptors in the nose.The structural details help explain how the #brain distinguishes between thousands of different odors based on molecular shape and #chemistry. The findings provide a clearer understanding of the biological process that allows us to experience the world through smell.👉 https://www.chemistryworld.com/features/the-molecular-mystery-of-how-we-smell/4023405.article#biology #science #research #education #nature

- Happy birthday to x-ray #crystallographer Dorothy Mary Crowfoot Hodgkin (née Crowfoot, 1910-1994), Nobel laureate in #chemistry for her models of biomolecules like penicillin, vitamin B12 & insulin.She was “captured for life by chemistry and crystals,” in childhood, 1 of 2 girls allowed to study chemistry rather than domestic science at her school with a small lab in her attic. On her 16th birthday her mother gave her 🧵1/https://minouette.etsy.com/listing/1863006411 #womenInSTEM #mastoArt #DisabledInSTEM

- ☕🧬 When #coffee beans are cooked, heat changes their #chemistry and creates new bitter molecules.We humans have a specific gene that acts like a sensor on the tongue to detect these flavors. Some people have sensors that are very sensitive to bitterness while others don't, which explains why a drink might taste different to every person.👉 https://www.popsci.com/science/why-coffee-tastes-bitter/#biology #science #genetics #research #food #education #health
- Today in the classroom:First year chem is starting electrochemistry. They'll try to get something – anything – from copper, zinc, and potatoes. The goal is to walk away understanding that you need two different metals, conductive solution, and wires. Historically, most groups get there.Second year chem took their final exam yesterday. It wasn't great. They'll start corrections today (a tradeoff for taking it early) to wrap up the year.#chemistry #teaching
