The 150 years since have seen fascinating developments in the atomic sciences of chemistry and physics, leading UNESCO to declare 2019 as the International Year of the Periodic Table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To celebrate the scientific milestone, this talk will explore Mendeleev\u2019s fascinating character, as well as some of the major scientific and human stories that have advanced the periodic table from fewer than 60 elements to the current 118.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"about-science-cafe\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">杏吧原创 Science Caf\u00e9<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Science Caf\u00e9 series is organized by the <a href=\"https:\/\/science.carleton.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Faculty of Science<\/a> at 杏吧原创 to discuss relevant issues facing our society and how science can help solve real-world problems.
