Press

Read the April/May issue of in Chemistry, magazine of the American Chemical Society, where Andrew Koh provides an in-depth story about ARCHEM and the applications of science in archaeology.

Read "The Sweet Smell of Archaeology," a synopsis of The American Scholar article cited below. This is found in the Utne Reader, a digest of what Utne feels to be the most "compelling, delightfully written stories, interviews and cultural criticism" from the world's press.

The American Scholar, the magazine of Phi Beta Kappa, recently published an article on Koh's work entitled "On History's Scent."
