We all have our feeds to keep updated on our science and science news, but what about when you need a break from lab? Here is a list of my favorite sites for guilt-free pleasure while waiting to compete a degas, tlc, or gel. Inspired by the Sceptical Chymist of course!

The secret lives of chemists: These profiles are unequivocally awesome and super personable. For example, I have found out that Bob Langer's favorite food is chocolate! But reader beware, reading too many of these profiles can alter your reality (OR can cause an imagination overload) ...For a nano-second, I almost convinced myself that Professor Bertozzi and I could have started a rock band together. After all, we both own guitars; and who is to say the combination of mad chemistry + musical skills wouldn't be attractive to a record label out there. But seriously, the profiles reveal the human side of your science heroes making you wish that they would become your instant BFFs. Check out Author Profiles on Angew & Reactions on Nature Chemistry
