    Social media and connecting with our community – moving on from X. rsc.org/news-events/ar…
    Social media – just like our partnerships, conferences, events and networks that span the globe – connects us with the wonderful worldwide chemical sciences community. As a community, we care about protecting our natural environment, about tackling discrimination to build a truly inclusive world, and about making cutting-edge chemistry accessible wherever it’s needed for the good of society. We have connected with our community on Twitter – now X – for 15 years, sharing our passion for the power of chemistry to change the world – and to make it more open, more green and more equal. But, as it becomes increasingly difficult to have constructive, evidence-based and respectful conversations on these topics we care deeply about, our community is leaving this platform. And consequently, so are we. From now on, we will not post on any of our Royal Society of Chemistry X accounts.

    The @pfizer / @BioNTech_Group vaccine is based on the delivery of synthetic RNA to cells. How does this work? The chemistry behind RNA vaccines is explored in this graphic developed with @compoundchem #CovidVaccine #COVID19 #vaccination

    We stand with Black people everywhere. Racism exists in science and needs action to eradicate it. #BlackLivesMatter We commit to doing more to make chemistry more equal and accessible for black people, and all people.

    An absolute privilege to have Yuri Oganessian visit our London office and sign his element on our periodic table. #IYPT2019 The only scientist on earth to have an element named after them. 😊 Make sure to stop by Burlington House to see his signature. #MondayMotivation

    #OTD in 2020 the UK began a pilot using lateral flow devices for asymptomatic detection of #COVID19. The use of LFDs is now widespread – but how do they work? Our latest #ChemVsCOVID graphic with @compoundchem explains...

    Are you a female chemist? Tweet us a selfie and tell us what you do with #Iamachemist in the run up to #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience. And when you do, tag a friend or colleague you think should take part so we can celebrate as many #WomenInSTEM as possible!

    All our water should be safe – but our analysis shows that a third of water courses tested in the UK contain medium/high-risk levels of #ForeverChemicals called #PFAS. Write to your MP to #CleanUpPFAS and lower the risk of health conditions such as cancer rsc.org/policy-evidenc…
