C&EN's Chemistry in Pictures: Showcasing the beauty of chemistry and the chemical sciences
Chemistry often deals with the unseen. But chemistry is also visually captivating: Think bright fluorescent dyes, glittering crystals, and shape-shifting polymers. A scientist with an aesthetic eye can find beauty even in something as mundane as an experiment gone wrong.
This photography exhibition showcases images from C&EN's (Chemical & Engineering News') Chemistry in Pictures series. The exhibition, like the C&EN series, highlights the beauty of chemistry and the chemical sciences. The images you see here come from academic journals, instrument makers, and-most important-the labs and lives of individual chemists and other scientists around the world.
Through such images, C&EN's Chemistry in Pictures provides a window into the fascinating world of scientific research and discovery. It also brings the beauty inherent in chemistry to the general public.
