Rooster: Steve Carell is back to his best in this stellar delight of a comedy
This sophisticated, character-driven sitcom from the creators of Scrubs and Ted Lasso is very funny. And it’s proof that all that drama hasn’t blunted Carrell’s comic edge

𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝐶ℎ𝑒𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑦, 𝑃𝑜𝑙𝑦𝑚𝑒𝑟 𝐶ℎ𝑒𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑦 and 𝑅𝑆𝐶 𝑆𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 are delighted to announce that our latest cross journal themed collection, 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞, 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰?, is now online and free to access until the end of April 2026.

This collection brings together a selection of outstanding reviews, perspectives, papers and communications, which collectively provide a panoramic view of the field’s current vitality. The works range from recycling of polymer wastes, substitution of polymer carbon with oxygen (or sulfur), utilization of biomass to replace petroleum-based polluting polymers, copolymerization of CO₂ with other monomers, and converting polymers (either natural or synthetic ones) into platform chemicals.

“Combiner IA et bases de données de matériaux pour la capture du CO2 dans l’air”, nos travaux à l'actu de CNRS Chimie ! www.inc.cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/...
Une base de données monumentale de matériaux poreux capables de piéger sélectivement certains gaz (Métal-organic frameworks, ou MOFs) a été actualisée en profondeur grâce à l’intelligence artificielle par une équipe internationale de scientifiques. Combinant extraction automatisée de données, filtrage chimio-informatique et apprentissage automatique, cet outil permet à présent d’identifier facilement des matériaux ultra-efficaces pour capter le CO₂, même en très faible concentration. Une avancée décisive pour identifier des solutions viables de dépollution, parue dans le journal Matter.
