Specialism: Clinical chemistry and toxicology
Membership classification: FRSC
Many would agree that the dream job involves making a difference, the chance to improve people’s lives across the globe. Working in chemistry, there are an abundance of such opportunities for those willing to push the boundaries and work hard. Dr John Anetor, professor of chemical pathology (clinical chemistry) and toxicology at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, is a fantastic example of how dedicated chemists can change the world.
On the frontline of advancements in his field, John has published a huge body of work including invaluable research about human exposure to lead, one of the most well-known toxic substances. He has made vital contributions to the understanding of the devastating effects this heavy metal has on systems within the body and mitigation by nutritional factors, mainly by use of micronutrients.
Remembering the Duke of Edinburgh
17 April 2021
Ahead of the funeral service for HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, we ve taken a look through our archives for his visits over the years – with our patron, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and on his own.
We were honoured to welcome Prince Philip as the first Honorary Fellow of one of our founding societies, the Royal Institute of Chemistry, in 1952.
As covered at the time in our member magazine Chemistry in Britain, on 17 February 1969, Prince Philip and the Queen made their first visit to the Chemical Society to attend a reception celebrating the Society s recent move into the section of Burlington House in which our London team is still based.

My father, John Lloyd, who has died aged 89, was a productive and talented forensic scientist, whose rigorous analytical skills overturned a series of prominent miscarriages of justice.
John joined the civil service as a forensic chemist in 1966 in the Birmingham forensic laboratory, and developed analytical methods for traces of compounds left by car tyres, explosive or gunfire residues. He published more than 40 academic papers, and his work was recognised with conferment of the degree of doctor of science by Aston University in 1983. He also contributed to international conferences, such as the International Symposium on Analysis and Detection of Explosives in Jerusalem in 1992.
