Crystallography365 matters ... more!

The unexpected battery success story image media centre thumbnail

The organisers of the 2014 United Nations International Year of Crystallography have announced that the successful Crystallography365 blog has found an additional home on the Crystallography matters ... more! website.

This project was one of the more significant public outreach highlights of the International Year of Crystallography. Every day throughout the year, an Australian team, mainly based at the Bragg Institute, posted a different crystal structure, introducing the public at large to some of the most important crystal structures ever determined, and offering information and entertainment on a whole host of others.

Among the individual structures and themed collections to explore are DNA and the ribosomehaemoglobinvitamin B12 and cellulose; the many different phases of ice; the composition of Planet Earth; the reason a lobster changes colour on cooking; new discoveries in battery technologybirthstones and other gems; extraterrestrial materials; and many, many more. Please bookmark the perpetual calendar feature of Crystallography365, and treat yourself to a fresh insight to the world of crystallography every day.
