1st International Symposium of Precision Polymer Chemistry for Functional Materials

第一届精准高分子化学与功能材料国际研讨会


University of Science and Technology of China, Soochow University, Suzhou Institute for Advanced Research (University of Science and Technology of China), and ACS Publications are pleased to announce the upcoming 1st International Symposium of Precision Polymer Chemistry for Functional Materials from November 3-7, 2022.

Precision is an increasingly significant concept in chemical science. Polymer and materials scientists all have a major role to play in the development of precision chemistry. This symposium, supported by the new ACS partner journal Precision Chemistry, will celebrate progress to date and identify the challenges we must overcome to improve precision.

The virtual sessions on November 3 and 4 will be free for everyone and participants will have the opportunity to hear from keynote lectures from a stellar international cast of researchers with a join mission to forge progress in the field of precision chemistry.

Welcome to register for the virtual sessions today!
