ACS Award in Pure Chemistry

The American Chemical Society Award in Pure Chemistry is awarded annually by the American Chemical Society (ACS) "to recognize and encourage fundamental research in pure chemistry carried out in North America by young men and women." "Young" means born within 35 years of the awarding of the Award, which takes place at the Spring meeting of the ACS. To be eligible, a nominee "must have accomplished research of unusual merit for an individual on the threshold of her or his career. Special consideration is given to independence of thought and originality in the research...." The award was first awarded in 1931, with Linus Pauling the inaugural recipient. It is sponsored by the Alpha Chi Sigma Fraternity and the Alpha Chi Sigma Educational Foundation.

gollark: Too bad.
gollark: Are you storing the count in an `i8`?
gollark: However, Minoteaur 36 refers to pages by ID, not by name, and I can't just make it point to an ID because a target page might not exist yet.
gollark: ```sqlCREATE TABLE links ( uid INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, fromPage INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES pages(uid), toPage TEXT NOT NULL, linkText TEXT NOT NULL, context TEXT NOT NULL, UNIQUE (fromPage, toPage));```Minoteaur uses this advanced "table" to store "links" between "pages".
gollark: OH NO, I have run into a MINOTEAUR DESIGN PROBLEM.
