"This partnership enables us to use, annually, a standout knowledge event to science fanatics, as well as the bigger public. The annual Exhibit motivates the youth to accept innovation and creative thinking and end up being active players in the growth of their societies and a part of the knowledge industry.".

For his part, Dr Olov Amelin, Director of the Nobel Gallery in Sweden, said: "We are delighted to be getting in a new phase in our lasting partnership with the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Structure. This year's edition of our exhibition in Dubai is set to introduce scientific research lovers and experts alike to the substantial field of chemistry. The Museum.

showcases chemistry's numerous contributions to humanity's understanding of the world around us, along with its advantages and favorable influence on individuals's day-to-day lives. It is our hope that the Nobel Museum would certainly inspire young Arabs to contribute to future explorations in chemistry and sciences as a whole.".

The Nobel Museum 2018 is made up of 5 sections, showcasing the achievements of Nobel laureates in five different areas of chemistry, namely: Chemistry of Life, Chemical Reactions, Elements, Molecules, and Chemistry Changing the World.

In the Chemistry of Life section of the exhibition, site visitors can check out the varied and intricate chemical processes that happen in the body, which Nobel Prize laureates in chemistry have actually examined. Meanwhile, the Chemical reaction section provides video clips showcasing the various types of chain reactions that are related to Nobel-Prize- winning discoveries. There is also a movie about Ahmed Zewail, that documented chain reactions and discussed exactly how they unfold thoroughly.

In the Elements section, site visitors can check out the table of elements of components, learning the properties of each aspect, or watch a movie about world-renowned French-Polish physicist and drug store Marie Curie, that won the Nobel Reward for the discovery of 2 formerly unidentified aspects: radium and polonium. The Molecules section, on the various other hand, allows site visitors to develop their own versions of particles, watch the finished models of simple and intricate molecules, or watch a film regarding British organic drug store Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, that got the Nobel Reward for describing exactly how a number of complex molecules are structured.

Lastly, in the Chemistry Changing the World section, visitors could see day-to-day objects that are related to Nobel-Prize- winning explorations in chemistry. These explorations and their applications are also gone over basically films. In one video clip, students speak about the locations and problems they wish chemistry research study will certainly focus on in the future.
