NEWS BRIEFS Crystal Clear: Chemistry Goes Mobile Jeremy Burkett, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Chemistry, has created a new mobile chemistry app to supplement topics in general chem- istry courses. Called “Crystalz,” it is currently available in the iTunes App Store. The app helps students visualize crystal lattice structure and packing in high-definition, space-filling form or in simple wire frames. The models can be moved and rotated in the app, allowing students to see the crystals from any viewpoint, and provides struc- tural information about bond angles and sizes.
