    Hi everyone. What a great couple of months we have had in the Gold community. A fantastic Gold 2009, conference in Heidelberg with lots of stimultaing papers and posters and whats even more important lots of science being disscussed over a few beers!

    To continue the good few months you can now access the new issue of Gold Bulletin 42(3). Whats in it ? I hear you say. Well we have an editorial by our new Editor. Although he is obviously not new to the Gold Council and Gold Bulletin I am sure he will make a his own mark and style on the future issues of GB.

    We have 7 exciting scientific papers covering differing aspects of nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, metallurgy and nanosphere synthesis.  We also have a review of the new Book “Gold Chemistry: Applications and future directions in the life sciences.”. There are two conference reports from the 23rd Santa Fe Symposium on jewelry Manufacturing Technology and also on The Fourth Taylor Conference on new work on gold catalyst. We also have a summary of Gold 2009 in Heidelberg and of couse our every popular section on Highlights from the recent literature.

    Go on have a look and let me know what you think !!!!!

    Have  you  all  registered  for  this  fantastic  conference on July 26th-29th?

    The conference will be a feast of science and technology with many guest speakers  including Graham Hutchings  and Masatake Haruta, the founding fathers of Gold Catalysis  and access to extensive poster sessions.

    I will be attending the conference for the first time and will  be looking forward to meeting all the brilliant innovative scientists who have contributed to Gold Bulletin over the years in which I have been Technical Editor.  I know that I have corresponded with lots of you over the years but it will be so nice to meet you all in person.  Not only that, I will have a stand advertising the fantastic benefits of publishing in Gold Bulletin  and on the Gold Bulletin stand you can see our new “Blog”  Gold Innovations. You can see it live and even contribute as a guest Blogger.
