What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too? And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates. A teaser: the income distribution of the laureates' fathers.1/N

Well - the entire crew of season two of #AdamRichmanEatsBritain has just been robbed. We were driving from Birmingham to London, stopped at a rest, stop in Barnet for exactly 4 1/2 minutes to use the restroom, and came back to our van completely cleaned out. All of the filming

#chemtwitter your periodic reminder that S and P obey the octet rule and things like DMSO have a single S-O bond, not a double bond. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

On this day in 1917, the Mont-Blanc exploded in Halifax Harbour, releasing a 2.9 kiloton explosion. The largest human-made explosion in history to that point, it killed nearly 2,000 people and injured 9,000. Let's learn about this dark day. 🧵1/18

At 9:05 a.m. the Mont-Blanc exploded. The blast wave shot out from the ship at 1 km per second. At the centre of the explosion, the temperature was hotter than the surface of the sun. For a brief moment, the bottom of Halifax Harbour was exposed. 🧵8/18
