For over a century, the Sabatier principle has provided a framework for chemists optimising heterogeneous catalysis. But as @andyextance explores, there’s increasing understanding that reaction rates can be enhanced beyond traditional theoretical limits.

There is a lot we don't understand about the chemistry of our brains, but there is also a lot we have been learning thanks to science. In Brain chemistry basics, @andyextance offers a great intro to our Chemistry of the brain collection.
