Apoptosis
I've worked as a professional chemist and as a teacher, but I've always loved chemistry as a hobby.
Figured it would be nice to share with those interested :)
I've got no agenda, no real plan, I just do whatever seems fun to me on any given day. With that in mind topics will bounce around a lot and I might shelf a project for months before coming back to it... Might even sometimes stray away from chemistry.
