Recommended Resources for Staying Current in Chemistry?

Journals, podcasts, webinars—what helps you stay informed about the latest research and innovations?

I mostly rely on Google Scholar alerts tuned to my niche — set alerts for key authors and add “review” or “perspective” so you catch big-picture pieces without doomscrolling. The Chemistry World Podcast fills gaps on my commute; if you’ve tried alerts, do you filter by specific journals or just keywords?
