Chemical & Engineering News has a 5 page article by Mitch Jacoby in the July 7, 2003 issue (pp. 18–22) [http://pubs.acs.org/isubscribe/journals/cen/81/i27/html/8127sci1.html], which highlights our recent Cancun National meeting. Paticular focus is given to the plenary award lectures by Professors Corma and Zaera. Mitch concludes, “A week in summy Cancun sounds more like vacation than work… But truth be told, the catalysis meeting was business as usual, with researches talking shop everywhere- even on the beach.”
