This includes researchers involved in experiment\, theory and computer simulations to achieve a systemic understanding of the connections between the structures\, properties and applications of all types of polymers. This has and continues to be an underlying theme of this conference series. Both chemistry and physics play a key role in all topic aspects. The planned 2024 POLY-CHAR conference will also be based on the underlying theme of ‘Polymers for our future’\, to help promote cross-discipline understanding between the classical branches of polymer science and some of the more avant-garde fields. The conference theme covers topics of special significance at the present time\, such as\, sustainability\, recyclability\, energy\, health and security. \nAnother key point of POLY-CHAR is that it has always placed special emphasis on international collaboration\, promotion of young scientists and providing a collegial environment. It should also be noted that a good balance between gender\, and senior and young scientists has and will be sought throughout both the organization and duration of the conference. One of the features of the program will be the ‘flash presentation’ sessions\, in which brilliant researchers in the early stages of their career will be given the opportunity to present orally their work at an international conference. \nDr Araceli Flores and Dr. Peter Shuttleworth\, Chair and Co-chair of POLY-CHAR 2024 \nContact form or by e-mail poly-char2024@fgua.es \n  URL:https://iupac.org/event/poly-char-2024-polymers-for-our-future/ LOCATION:CSIC Madrid\, C. de Serrano\, 117\, Madrid\, 28006\, Spain CATEGORIES:International Conference ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://iupac.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Poly-Char-2024-group.png GEO:40.4412327;-3.6875128 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=CSIC Madrid C. de Serrano 117 Madrid 28006 Spain;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=C. de Serrano\, 117:geo:-3.6875128,40.4412327 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240623 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240629 DTSTAMP:20240105T041833 CREATED:20231128T111130Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231204T092429Z UID:24994-1719100800-1719619199@iupac.org SUMMARY:Impactful Nano-Applications for Sustainable Food Production DESCRIPTION:A community of scientists from around the globe\, representing academia\, industry\, government\, and NGOs will assemble to present and discuss cutting edge\, unpublished research with other experts in the field.

In the scientific program of ICGC\, the contributions related to achieving carbon neutrality such as CO2 utilization\, biomass conversion\, upcycling of plastic wastes\, renewable energy and related green processes\, and so on\, are included\, which reflect the advances of green chemistry. \nContact:\nZhimin Liu\, liuzm@iccas.ac.cn\nNo. 2\, North First Street\, Zhongguancun\, Haidian\, Beijing 100190\, China.\nTel &Fax: 8610-62562821 \nhttps://greeniupac2024.org \nPhoto by Clu Soh on Unsplash URL:https://iupac.org/event/10th-iupac-international-conference-on-green-chemistry/ LOCATION:Beijing\, Beijing\, China CATEGORIES:International Conference ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://iupac.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/20241025_ICGC_clu-soh-bicrbndBPyE-unsplash.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20241119 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20241122 DTSTAMP:20240105T041833 CREATED:20231025T091238Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231128T105552Z UID:24835-1731974400-1732233599@iupac.org SUMMARY:Chemistry\, a lever for sustainable development of African countries DESCRIPTION:Annual Days of Chemistry of Senegal & 9th FASC Congress (FASC|JACS 2024)\nSenegal will host the African Chemical Societies for the General Assembly of the Federation of African Societies of Chemistry (FASC). It will be held in conjunction with the Annual Days of Chemistry of Senegal (Journées Annuelles de Chimie du Sénégal – JACS)\, the major event of the Senegalese Committee for Chemistry (CSC)\, from 19 to 21 November 2024 at Radisson Blu Hotel\, Dakar Sea Plaza\, Corniche Ouest\, Dakar\, Senegal. The conference is themed “Chemistry\, a lever for sustainable development of African countries“. \n \nFASC|JACS 2024 will be jointly organized by CSC and FASC along with their partners among which are RSC\, ACS\, IUPAC\, OPCW and West African Society of Chemistry (SOACHIM/Senegal) and in collaboration with Senegalese universities. The aim of this conference is not only to bring together Africa’s scientific\, technological and industrial communities\, but also to rethink together a structurally sustainable development centered on mankind and its priority investments. Chemistry is heavily involved in solving problems of African societies linked to health\, energy\, environment\, water supply and nutrition\, and therefore plays a key role in the sustainable development of African countries.\nThe Covid 19 crisis revealed the fragility of African economies and the need for genuine policies of sovereignty in the fields of pharmaceuticals\, health\, food\, energy and more. \nThe following topics will be developed around the general theme: \n1. Green Chemistry\n2. Sustainable Materials for Chemistry\n3. Chemistry of Water and Environment\n4. Electrochemistry and Nanotechnology\n5. Chemistry and health\n6. Chemical Safety and Security \nGeneral contact:\nProf. Modou Fall ; modou.fall@ucad.edu.sn\nPO Box 15756\, Dakar-Fann\, Senegal\nPhone: +221775557200 \nhttps://csc.ucad.sn (under Congrès and FASC|JACS 2024) \n\nIUPAC will be providing support for Young scientists participation.
