The Scientific Promise of Perfect Symmetry
By KENNETH CHANG
It is one of the most symmetrical mathematical structures in the universe. It may underlie the Theory of Everything that physicists seek to describe the universe. A 57-dimensional object that can in essence be rotated in 248 ways without changing its appearance.

Check it out!

Ta Da! Yes, a project years in the making. The tutorial, “Information Literacy for the Sciences” also fondly referred to as the “Chem Module” is now up and ready for access.

You will find links to the module on the Chemistry Research Guide: http://www.library.drexel.edu/resources/guides/chemistry.html#tutorial

Also a link from the Tutorials page: http://www.library.drexel.edu/resources/tutorials/tutorials.html

The tutorial is meant to enhance the upper level undergraduate or first year graduate science student to better understand the nature of the scientific literature. This is not a tutorial on how to search the literature, but understanding the nature of scientific literature will ultimately lead to more productive literature discovery.

The tutorial began as a project by Peggy Dominy and Jenifer Baldwin and with the assistance of Joshua C. Roberts, has come to fruition. YEAH!

ENJOY!
