Student Center, 5/5 Bristo Square, Edinburgh 8

Like most kids, I first became interested in chemistry because it was colourful, smelly and explosive! State-of-the-art chemistry now studies matter at the atomic level, but still gives me the same thrill: I will show with demonstrations and slides how fun chemistry is connected with the most modern developments in new materials and medicine.
