Oh no, not another one. This is sad news
Cardiff University has proposed merging its chemistry department with the earth and environmental sciences and physics and astronomy departments to form a new school of natural sciences. It has also proposed other mergers, and ending several programmes. chemistryworld.com/news/card…

The CCDC is running a free workshop on how to access their (beautifully curated) databases using Python in March. Possibly of interest to ChemEd people - lots of discussions recently about where we can meaningfully teach coding. ccdc.cam.ac.uk/community/eve…
