About the lecture
Mendeleev鈥檚 periodic table of 63 elements, has now become118 elements, but which of these are essential for human life, and which can be used in the design of medicines? Are essential elements all coded for by the human genome? I will make an element-by-element journey through the periodic table, and identify elements essential for human life, and also non-essential elements, and even radionuclides, which can be used for therapy and diagnosis of disease. Understanding the periodic table of life will lead to major advances in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, and to improvements in health.The Manchester edition, '150 Years of the Periodic Table : The Elements of Life and Medicines ', will be given by Peter Sadler, University of Warwick on 2 October 2019 at The 新月直播app下载 and Industry Museum.
