Vanadium Compounds
The November 1997 symposium focused attention on the importance of understanding the interrelationships among the aqueous chemistry, the biochemistry, and the therapeutic utilization of vanadium compounds. The 28 contributions in this proceedings volume are divided into the three areas. Examples of the topics are insulin- mimetic action of selected vanadium compounds, synthetic models for vanadium haloperoxidases, the vanadium-containing nitrogenase system of Azotobacter vinelandii, a possible role for amavadine in some Amanita fungi, and vanadium salts in the treatment of human diabetes mellitus.

Essential Metals in Medicine: Therapeutic Use and Toxicity of Metal Ions in the Clinic
Volume 19, entitled Essential Metals in Medicine: Therapeutic Use and Toxicity of Metal Ions in the Clinic of the series Metal Ions in Life Sciences centers on the role of metal ions in clinical medicine. Metal ions are tightly regulated in human health: while essential to life, they can be toxic as well. Following an introductory chapter briefly discussing several important metal-related drugs and diseases and a chapter about drug development, the focus is fi rst on iron: its essentiality for pathogens and humans as well as its toxicity. Chelation therapy is addressed in the context of thalassemia, its relationship to neurodegenerative diseases and also the risks connected with iron adminis...
Women in Chemistry 2022
We are delighted to present the 2022 Women in Chemistry article collection. Following the celebration of International Women’s Day 2022, the UNESCO International Day of Women and Girls in Science, Frontiers in Chemistry is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all branches of Chemistry. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Chemistry is no exception to this. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
