Chemistry Matters : 2011 Bayliss Youth Lecture Other events...
In this 40th anniversary of the first Bayliss Youth Lecture, Professor Allan McKinley, from the University of Western Australia, and Dr Jeff Davis, an Industrial chemist, will discuss some of the major ways chemistry has improved our lifestyle and standard of living. These chemical advances will be demonstrated by a series of chemical reactions involving bangs, flashes, flames and fantastic colours.

The Bayliss Youth Lecture is organised by the Chemical Education Group of the Western Australian Branch of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI). This group was formally constituted in 1980 and aims to foster a close and continuing interaction among students, teachers and practising chemists - both industrial and academic - with the objective of developing interest in and an understanding of the full ramifications of chemical science.

The Bayliss Youth Lecture is free but bookings are essential as seating in the venues is limited. Bookings should be made by sending an email to [email protected] with “UWABayliss” in the subject line.
