We are glad to announce that Isabella has won the annual YSJ Poster competition. Read a bit more about her and see her poster below! My name is Isabella Furness and I’m a 6th form student at Denstone College. I study Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics at A level and my ambition is to study Medicine at University and to become a doctor. I was first fascinated by graphene and its “wonder” properties when I was 12. My particular interest is in the applications of graphene and

Prasha Maskey (1) (1) St. Xavier’s College, Loyola Campus — Kathmandu, Nepal Toluene is an extensively used solvent for chemical synthesis and pharmaceutical production. In spite of its abundant use, the dynamics of its bimolecular interactions remain insufficiently characterised in scientific literature. In this study, GROMACS was employed to investigate collision dynamics between two molecules of toluene to identify energy exchange mechanisms. This draws a simple analogy to
