Places To Cook


Instead of a repository of my favorite restaurants, I would like to pay homage to the places I have been fortunate to do my own brand of cooking.

 

  University of Durham. Center of excellence for organic and polymer synthesis. take a few minutes to browse through the aromatic arenas of sulfur heterocycle chemistry, natural products, or novel polymer synthesis. I learned to cook under the watchful eye of Prof. Martin Bryce

 

Take a stroll around the beautiful environment of IBM's Almaden Research Center in San Jose, California. Some of the best polymer research in the world is conducted here in the areas of controlled polymer synthesis, photolithographic and dielectric materials. A great place to learn to build large molecules and apply them to surfaces.

 

Argonaut Technologies located in San Carlos California is a leader in the area of instrumentation and resins for solid phase organic synthesis. Argonaut's philosophy is to make organic chemistry faster and easier. You will find some nice instrumentation that will allow you to so anything from 10 to 192 simultaneous reactions in solution or on solid phase.

 

It is guaranteed that you have used one of Cabot's products in one form or another, even if you do not realize it. Cabot is a world leader in production of specialty particles fr application in everything from tires to silicon chip production. Next time you take a drive down the street or print something on your ink-jet printer, take a minute to wonder if the product you are using was developed at Cabot's Business & Technology Center in Massachusetts.

 

Rohm and Haas products quietly improve the quality of our life, whether it's in cutting edge electronics, consumer products, paint or high performance adhesives. Try to imagine life without the polymer products that we produce.
