The Royal Society of Chemistry has calculated that it costs precisely $151,578.46 to buy all the chemical material needed to build Benedict Cumberbatch, labour excluded. Although the amount of Nitrogen costs merely 40 cents, the Carbon atoms are billed at $69,550, required to build an avarage human.

Royal Society of Chemistry - Press Release: Listening to the Black chemistry community

Thought that there may be some redditors who would be interested in working in this space, or who know people who would...

The RSC has just launched an initiative though their diversity and inclusion fund looking for "community-driven projects that look at the needs, challenges and opportunities in support of the Black chemistry community".

Press Release:

>Listening to the Black chemistry community
>
>The recent surge of action in the #BlackLivesMatter movement has spurred us to do more, quicker, for the Black chemistry community, and to listen to and learn from Black chemists. We are fast-tracking research to understand Black chemists’ experience of racism and discrimination, the depth and breadth of it, and what we specifically need to do to help eradicate it.In the meantime, we are making funding specifically available right now for community-driven projects that also support the Black chemistry community. > >Apply for funding now > >Do you have an idea for a project that looks at the needs, challenges and opportunities in support of the Black chemistry community?
>
>We have created a specific call to support these projects through our Inclusion & Diversity Fund. We will consider individual applications up to the value of Β£5,000. Funding greater than Β£5,000 may be considered for large-scale projects.
>
>Submit your application
>
>Applications open on 23 July 2020 and we will respond to you within 3 weeks of receiving your completed application.
>
>We know these are small initial steps, but we are committed to driving long-term change. We will gain valuable insights from these projects run by dedicated members of the chemical sciences community, and we will share the insights from the projects so that everyone can access them.
>
>Please contact the diversity team if you have any questions.

​

Edit: Huh. Did not expect this to be controversial. Oh well, I guess I can always be a bit more disappointed in people on the internet after all.

All I'll say is the guys getting triggered in the comments should avoid reading the diversity and inclusion section of their website...

YSK about Periodic Table, an interactive periodic table by the Royal Society of Chemistry

Periodic Table is an app by the Royal Society of Chemistry that puts an interactive periodic table on your phone or tablet. You can tap on any of the elements to get a quick rundown of the element's properties, such as name, boiling point, melting point and density. You can also see all sorts of characteristics at a glance, like atomic radius and electronegativity. You can even see elements by group, period, block and metals and non-metals. This app is really helping with my Chemistry exam.

You can download it for iOS and Android.
