		<title>This Month in Chemical History &#8211; May Edition, Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Harold Goldwhite
In the previous column I traced the career of Humphry Davy to 1800. In 1801 he was invited by Count Rumford to a position at the relatively new Royal Institution in London. There Davy was eventually able to continue his own research, but first had to work up lectures on the chemistry of [...]]]></description>

		<title>This Month in Chemical History – May Edition, Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Harold Goldwhite
Humphry Davy, perhaps the most romantic of all 19th century chemists, died on May 29, 1829, in Geneva, Switzerland, at the age of 50. Why the most romantic?

At first, [...]]]></description>

		<title>This Month in Chemical History, Part 1</title>

April, like most months, is rich in anniversaries of scientists who made major contributions to chemical sciences. Among them are James Watson, Robert Woodward, Carl Lindemann, and Glen Seaborg. But I choose to discuss the career of a great physicist whose work made such an impact on our science that it changed the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Who Owns My Invention?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A conversation between Brian Treco and Nhung McLeland
Brian:  Nhung, to many of us, that sounds like a very silly question.  After all, the answer is &#8220;I do&#8221;, isn&#8217;t it?  Well, we know that surprisingly often, that is NOT the case in the United States for inventors who are employees.  My read [...]]]></description>
