Chemists are a vital part of the research and innovation (R&I) landscape. With their expertise, they shape progress and, thus, society. In order to live up to this responsibility, it is suggested to prepare young chemists for their future role as innovators with proper training. Here, it is important to go beyond the good scientific practice dimension of research integrity and add discourse performance and value assessments to the class outline of a "responsible chemistry" course. This becomes especially relevant in view of changing demands on chemical research and innovation as envisioned by the European Green Deal through its Horizon Europe funding scheme. This paper outlines the necessity of preparing chemists for the requirements of a green transition R&I policy and shows what that would mean for "ethics in chemistry" education.

Health networking is in principle a formidable instrument to address many challenges posed by cancer, one of the two most common and most lethal non-communicable chronic diseases. The European Union (EU)'s Beating Cancer Plan foresaw the addition of new health networks to the four already existing European Reference Networks on rare cancers: the Network of Comprehensive Cancer Centres and several networks of expertise (NoEs), which will be shortly deployed on items as complex and poor-prognosis cancers, palliative care, survivorship, personalised primary and secondary prevention, omic technologies, hi-tech medical resources, and cancers in adolescents and young adults. The community of experts of the EU Joint Action, due to build such NoEs, has drafted this 'green paper', incorporating 13 open questions, in an effort to foster discussion on some open questions about health networking on cancer in the EU.

Nature offers a bewildering diversity of flower colours. Understanding the ecology and evolution of this fantastic floral diversity requires knowledge about the visual systems of their natural observers, such as insect pollinators. The key question is how flower colour and pattern can be measured and represented to characterise the signals that are relevant to pollinators.

A vast sum of fish waste is being annually discarded by marine fishing industries imposing serious environmental pollution concerns. However, these aquatic discarded matters are captivating sources of collagen, a fibrous protein with eminent social and economic relevance. Collagen is conventionally recovered using outdated complex processes requiring many reagents, multiple steps, and extended periods.
