Luca Turin. Portrait of Dr Luca Turin who proposes that a molecule's smell depends mostly on its vibration rather than its shape. This theory could revolutionise the perfume industry. Computer graphics of fragrant pentadecanolide molecules surround him. Turin,of the Department of Anatomy & Developmental Biology at University College London,Britain,has designed a computer algorithm which can determine how a human nose will perceive the smell of any molecule. Turin is setting up a database of molecules which will allow perfume manufacturers to design new fragran- ces much more quickly and cheaply than has previously been possible. Photographed in 1997 | |
