Chemistry World March 17, 2011 Andy Extance	Hydrazine fuels hydrogen power hopes Renowned as a rocket propellant, hydrazine could also push forward the development of hydrogen fuel cells for powering vehicles say US-based researchers.
Chemistry World March 16, 2011	Inspirational science Seong Keun Kim is head of the Molecular Reaction Dynamics Laboratory at Seoul National University, Korea. He uses spectroscopic, microscopic and computational methods to investigate a wide range of subjects from molecular physics and nanoscience to cell biology.
Chemistry World March 11, 2011 Harriet Brewerton	Drawing batteries Scientists in Japan have made an electrode for a lithium-air battery using a pencil. The advance could bring efficient, environmentally friendly and safe batteries for electric vehicles a step closer.
Chemistry World March 11, 2011 David Barden	Out of the blue - a new phosphor for flat screen displays Materials chemists in China have developed a compound that they believe should improve the quality of field emission displays, bringing applications a step closer.
Chemistry World March 4, 2011 Russell Johnson	Tracking the early stages of Alzheimer's disease UK researchers can track the early steps of formation of peptide clumps linked to Alzheimer's disease using the peptide's fluorescent ability. This could help design effective therapies for the disease at an early stage.
Chemistry World March 4, 2011 Fay Nolan-Neylan	Harvesting energy from soft drinks Scientists in China have made a biofuel cell that harvests energy from soft drinks such as iced tea and juices.
Chemistry World March 4, 2011 Elinor Richards	Laser treatment for late-stage cancer Scientists from China, the US and Peru claim to have successfully treated late-stage breast cancer patients using laser immunotherapy to stimulate patients' own immune systems to fight the cancer.
Chemistry World March 2011	Column: The crucible Chemistry cannot all be reduced to physics, argues Philip Ball
Chemistry World March 2011	Microwave chemistry - green or not? Microwave-assisted chemistry might not deserve its environmentally friendly reputation, argues Jonathan Moseley
