Chemistry By Design is an interactive virtual flashcard that allows everyone to test their skills using known synthetic sequences. The goal is to display the reagents, starting materials and products for every single step used in constructing a natural product or pharmaceutical.
To better serve the community everyone is called to submit a synthetic sequence not yet included in the app. The app is available online or for iOs and Android devices.
Chemistry By Design is created by Professor Jon T. Njardarson (Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Arizona). 

Furthermore about Chemistry, Marie Curie Actions sometime ago presented a funny video: "Chemicals having a party".

In a world marked by wars and global crises, the new Secretary General of Pugwash tells us about the challenges of disarmament and the value of scientific dialogue for peace (photo: Karen Hallberg, source Wikipedia).

Pugwash is the name of a Canadian fishing village and a commitment to peace. In July 1957, at the height of the Cold War, twenty-two scientists gathered here for the first Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs. The group was led by the mathematician and philosopher Bertrand Russell, who, two years earlier on 9 July 1955, presented the Russell and Einstein Manifesto in London's Caxton Hall. In this manifesto, the philosopher and physicist (who died in April but had signed it) called on the world to renounce war.
