ACS Publications is thrilled to announce the upcoming event " ACS-Fudan University Macro Summit: Innovations in Macromolecular Science " in partnership with Fudan University, taking place on Monday, October 14, 2024. The summit is a premier gathering of top scientists worldwide, to encourage international collaboration and explore the forefront of macromolecular science.

Key topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Sustainable polymers and advanced polymerization methods
  • Supramolecular assembly and stimuli-responsive polymers
  • Bioinspired materials and therapeutic nanotechnologies
  • Electronic fibers and polymer for energy and environment
  • State-of-the-art characterizations and properties of functional polymers

The summit will also feature a poster session showcasing innovative findings in macromolecular science. Poster presenters are encouraged to submit their abstracts and contribute to the dynamic discussions at the summit.  Poster presentations will be evaluated during the summit.

Please note that space for poster presentations is limited, and abstract submission does not guarantee acceptance. All poster presenters will receive a certificate after the event.

Call for Abstracts closed October 7, 2024.

PARTNER JOURNALS

OPEN CALLS FOR PAPERS

CALL FOR PAPERS

Spin-Active and Magnetic Polymers

The journal seeks submissions of original Letters aimed to advance, optimize, and facilitate the community’s understanding of spin-active and magnetic polymers—with a clear focus on fundamental polymer science and polymer physics rather than applied polymer research.
CALL FOR PAPERS

Fundamentals of Polymer Colloids

This Special Issue will center on the dynamics of polymer colloids, aiming to enhance our understanding of polymer structure, function, and behavior. Submit your manuscript by October 31, 2024.

Advanced Functional Polymers for Medicine

This Special Issue will celebrate the Utrecht Advanced Functional Polymers for Medicine conference. Submit your manuscript by December 31, 2024.
