About this listen
The answer lies in functional groups—the chemical signatures that give molecules their superpowers. In this episode, we decode how these tiny atomic clusters control everything from smell and taste to how medicines work.
Why does one molecule smell like fresh fruit while its nearly identical twin is toxic? How does chemistry determine whether something is sweet or sour? And how do functional groups help design the next generation of life-saving drugs?
From the kitchen to the pharmacy, this episode uncovers the hidden chemical tags that shape your world in ways you never imagined.
