I've had a bit of frustration with latex and its apparent inability to cope with unicode. Apparently my tex distribution is old and I should try a new one; well I tried, failed and returned! Using xetex is a bit beyond my capability for now and I don't have to use unicode so I shall forget that option for now.
Towards the end of last month I received a newsletter in my e-mail inbox, which provides information about (post)graduates. Within the message was reference to a series of documents published by the Royal society of chemistry: Postgraduate skills record. The first hyperlink in the newsletter was erroneous so I won't make the same mistake and publish the current internet address here; if interested go to rsc web site and search
Proved to be interesting reading and I wished I had encountered earlier as it should augment nicely the administration documents issued by the university.
I'm awaiting discussion and hopefully budgetary approval to receive some laboratory equipment to allow me to proceed with my project. So far, I've done nothing! In the meantime I reviewing the skills record document, to complete the first phase (a few months late but better than never).
Oh, and I'm using tex to create a document to record my progress. :)
