UCL Chemistry NEWSLETTER UCL DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY UCL Chemistry NEWSLETTER Contents Welcome to the Newsletter 1. Introduction 2. Staff Highlights and News This is my last newsletter address. I am stepping down as Head of Department after six and a half years to take up the Dean of MAPS position. I would like to thank everyone in the 3. Student Highlights and News department, you all have really supported me as HOD and helped the department to grow in size and research impact. The new Head of Chemistry will be Professor Claire Carmalt, the 4. Alumni Matters seventeenth Head of Chemistry at UCL and the fi rst women to take on the role. I am sure 5. Research Highlights you will join with me in supporting Claire in the years to come. 6. Grants and Awards The undergraduate and postgraduate admission look very strong again this year and we expect over 140 new undergraduates to be studying chemistry. These students will benefi t 7. Publications from some major changes in the way that we will administer the laboratory courses. Katherine 8. Staff Holt, Head of Teaching Committee, has overseen major changes to how we deliver third year laboratories and we will have closer synergy in aspects of synthesis and analysis. The department was successful in getting virtually all of our courses credited by the Royal Society of Chemistry. They were very impressed by how we deliver material and the depth and rigour of our courses. We have been given a few pointers for the future to make sure that analytical chemistry and practical elements of physical chemistry are given a bit more attention. The department has continued its success in grant applications and has a portfolio of Introduction current grants in excess of £50M. It has the highest EPSRC grant portfolio of any Chemistry Department in the country. Amongst many successes this year I wanted to highlight Beppe Many thanks go to Nicola Best for Battaglia and Tracey Clarke who have both been awarded EPSRC Fellowships. organising this year’s newsletter and to Tracy Hankey at UCL Digital We have a new professorial appointment, Professor Graeme Worth, who joins us from the Media Services for her help.

This tradition continues today with the Royal Society Email: w.griffi [email protected] of Chemistry and Johnson Matthey Plc. The nineteenth century brought a ferment of discovery and research to all branches of chemistry; for example some twenty-six elements were discovered between 1800 and 1850, ten of them by British chemists, including rhodium, palladium, osmium and iridium. In 1841 the Chemical Society – the oldest national chemical society in the world still in existence – was established. Both Percival Johnson (Figure 1(a)) and George Matthey (Figure 1(b)) were prominent members, Johnson being one of its founders. The Origins of the Chemical Society Although there had been an earlier London Chemical Society in 1824 it lasted for only a year (1). The Chemical Society of London (‘of London’ was dropped in 1848) was founded at a meeting held on 30th March 1841 at the Society of Arts in John Street (now John Adam Street), London, UK; Robert Warington (1807–1867), an analytical chemist later to become resident Director of the Society of Apothecaries (2), was instrumental in setting it up and his son, also Robert Warington, later wrote an account of its history for its 1891 Jubilee (3).

Do NOT cut the wound, apply substances to the wound or use a tourniquet. Do NOT remove jeans or shirt as any movement will assist the venom to enter the blood stream. KEEP THE VICTIM STILL. 1. Apply a broad pressure bandage over the bite site as soon as possible. 2. Keep the limb still. The bandage should be as tight as you would bind a sprained ankle. 3. Extend the bandage down to the fingers or toes then up the leg as high as possible. (For a bite on the hand or forearm bind up to the elbow). 4. Apply a splint if possible, to immobilise the limb. 5. Bind it firmly to as much of the limb as possible. (Use a sling for an arm injury). Bring transport to the victim where possible or carry them to transportation. Transport the victim to the nearest hospital. Please Print this page off and put it up on the wall in your snake room. 2 There is some serious occupational health risks involved in keeping venomous snakes. All risk can be eliminated if kept clean and in the correct lockable enclosures with only the risk of handling left in play.
