George E. Kimball was born in Chicago in 1906 and he grew up in New Britain, Connecticut.
 He was the oldest of three children in a middle-class family; his younger brother, Penn Kimball, also became a professor at Columbia, in journalism.
 His interest in chemistry was due to his high school chemistry teacher.
 He spent a year at Phillips Exeter Academy and in 1924 he enrolled at Princeton University.
 Apparently his father was of the opinion that there were already too many graduates of Yale University in Connecticut.
 Kimball later claimed that he chose the chemistry program at Princeton because it allowed him to study not only chemistry, but also an equal amount of physics and mathematics, which were also of interest to him.
 Kimball received his bachelor's degree in 1928, and at that time his main interest was quantum chemistry, which at that time was a field that was still in its infancy, following significant theoretical breakthroughs in quantum mechanics in 1925.
Chemistry: A Volatile History is a 2010 BBC documentary on the history of chemistry presented by Jim Al-Khalili.
 It was nominated for the 2010 British Academy Television Awards in the category Specialist Factual.
Marco Fontani (born May 5, 1969 in Florence ) is a chemist and chemistry historian, author of over 120 publications in materials chemistry, organometallic chemistry, electrochemistry and the history of chemistry.
 He is also a member of the board of directors of the Italian National Society of History of Chemistry (Gruppo Nazionale di Storia e Fondamenti della Chimica).
He was Headteacher of Watford Grammar School for Boys between 1994 and 2000, and was the British government's National STEM Director from 2006 to 2010 (STEM referring to the academic disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics).
 He is on the council and a trustee of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and is a trustee of the Natural History Museum.
 He was made a Knight Bachelor in the 2010 New Year's honours.
 In 2014 the Royal Society of Chemistry awarded him the Lord Lewis Prize "in recognition of his extensive influence over chemistry education policy".
 He is Chair of the Salters' Institute board, was the founding director of Salters' Advanced Chemistry programme, and is the author of numerous chemistry textbooks.
Eluvathingal Devassy Jemmis or E. D. Jemmis (born October 31, 1951) is a Professor of theoretical chemistry at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India.
 He was the founding Director of Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Thiruvananthapuram (IISER-TVM).
 His primary area of research is applied theoretical chemistry with emphasis on structure, bonding and reactivity, across the periodic table of the elements.
 Apart from many of his contributions to applied theoretical chemistry, an equivalent of the structural chemistry of carbon, as exemplified by the Huckel 4n+2 Rule, benzenoid aromatics and graphite, and tetrahedral carbon and diamond, is brought in the structural chemistry of boron by the Jemmis mno rules which relates polyhedral and macropolyhedral boranes to allotropes of boron and boron-rich solids.
 He has been awarded Padma Shri in Science and Engineering category (year 2014) by the Government of India.
Lauder William Jones (July 22, 1869 – December 28, 1960) was an American chemist, born at New Richmond, Ohio.
 He was graduated at Williams College in 1892, and received his Ph. D. from the University of Chicago in 1897.
 In the same year, he became an assistant in chemistry at Chicago, where he remained until 1907.
 From 1907 to 1918, he was professor of chemistry at the University of Cincinnati, and from 1918 to 1920, he was dean of the School of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota, after which he accepted a call to the chair of chemistry at Princeton.
 He devoted his attention chiefly to organic chemistry and published papers on nitro-paraffin salts, alkyl derivatives of hydroxylamine, preparation of hydroxamic acids from hydroxylamines, electron conception of valence, and preparation of electromeres.
 During the War he served with the Chemical War Service as its chief of the research section of offense.
 Dr. Jones was the author of "A Laboratory Outline of Organic Chemistry" (1911).
 He died in Los Angeles, California in 1960.
The Germany–Poland border (German: "Grenze zwischen Deutschland und Polen" , Polish: "Granica polsko-niemiecka" ), the state border between Poland and Germany, is currently the Oder–Neisse line.
 It has a total length of 467 km and has been in place since 1945.
 It stretches from the Baltic Sea in the north to the Czech Republic in the south.
 Nevertheless, the border has not always followed this line, and it has a long and often volatile history.
Yitzhak Apeloig (born September 1, 1944 in Uzbekistan) is a pioneer in the computational chemistry field of the Ab initio quantum chemistry methods for predicting and preparing the physical and chemical properties of materials.
 He was the president of the Technion from 2001 until 2009 where the position was handed off to Peretz Lavie.
 Distinguished Prof. Apeloig currently holds the Joseph Israel Freund Chair in Chemistry and is the co-director of the Lise Meitner Minerva Center for Computational Quantum Chemistry at the Technion.
 He served as dean of the Faculty of Chemistry from 1995 to 1999, where he was named Teacher of the Year at three occasions.
Jameel Sadik "Jim" Al-Khalili OBE (Arabic: جميل صادق الخليلي‎ ‎ ; born 20 September 1962) is a British Iraqi theoretical physicist, author and broadcaster.
 He is currently Professor of Theoretical Physics and Chair in the Public Engagement in Science at the University of Surrey.
 He has presented a number of science programmes on BBC television and is a frequent commentator about science in other British media.
Didier Astruc (born 9 June 1946 in Versailles) carried out his studies in chemistry in Rennes.
 After a Ph. D. with professor R. Dabard in organometallic chemistry, he did post-doctoral studies with professor R. R. Schrock (2005 Nobel Laureate) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Mass., in the U.S. and later a sabbatical year with professor K. P. C. Vollhardt at the University of California at Berkeley.
 He became a CNRS Director of research in Rennes, then in 1983 full Professor of Chemistry at the University Bordeaux 1.
 He is known for his work on “Electron-Reservoir” complexes and dendritic molecular batteries, catalytic processes (olefin metathesis, C-C coupling, catalysis in water) using nanoreactors and molecular recognition using gold nanoparticles and metallodendrimers.
 He is the author of three books, scientific publications and the editor of five books or special issues.
 He has been a member of the National CNRS committee from 2000 to 2008 and the President of the Coordination Chemistry Division of the Société Française de Chimie from 2000 to 2004.
