Jonathon Sessler's Pharmacyclics company aided in advancing molecules to target cancer and was recently bought by AbbVie.

The program, which began visiting schools in December of 2014, was created to get children excited about science. The demonstrations are intended to be fun and exciting while showcasing basic principles of chemistry.

The University of Texas at Austin's Emily Que, an assistant professor of chemistry, was lead author on a new study that describes the cutting-edge technology a research team used to become the first to capture images of these molecular fireworks and to pinpoint the origin of the zinc sparks.

This past spring, we asked faculty, staff and students in the College of Natural Sciences community to send us images that celebrated the extraordinary beauty of science and the scientific process. We were looking for that moment where science and art collide and we succeeded.
