The seven ages of chemistry
One scientist’s progress from childhood to PhD and beyond
As we move through life our perception of the world changes. Our views and beliefs develop and grow, as do our understanding and knowledge. This constantly growing wisdom changes both our perspective of the world and how the world sees us. Throughout childhood, we learn the fundamentals of life, the basics of growing up, before our school years give a wider spectrum of education. Eventually, we hope to find our passion and develop as a specialist.
