According to a German saying, “There is no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing. ”The value of outside time is promoted in the schools. 40 No matter how cold and grey it gets, and in Berlin it gets pretty cold, parents still bundle their kids up and take them to the park, or send them out on their own. 38 A note came home from school along with my excited second grader.

They then pared those to a database of chemicals. Pieter Dorrestein, a UCSD pharmaceutical chemist, had helped set up that database a few years earlier, which contains various substances, including spices, caffeine and medicines.

And each chemical offers clues to you and your activities. By studying them, scientists might be able to piece together a story about your recent life, a new study finds.

And each chemical offers clues to you and your activities. By studying them, scientists might be able to piece together a story about your recent life, a new study finds. A molecule (分子) is a group of atoms. It represents the smallest amount of some chemicals. Your skin is covered in molecules picked up by everything you touched. With each new thing your skin contacts, you leave behind some small share of what it’d touched earlier. Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) recently studied such chemical leftovers on the phones of 39 volunteers. The study was led by biochemist Amina Bouslimani. To explore those residues (剩余物), the UCSD team wiped the surface of each volunteer’s phone with a cotton swab (藥簽). The scientists also swabbed each
