cover:
IUPAC has released its seventh selection of the Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry. The initiative continues to look into sustainability and circularity, connecting new and innovative ideas towards a greener future, while maintaining a strong interest in the development of methods for the improvement of human health. The selection of the 2025 Top Ten, carefully crafted by a panel of experts from a pool of global nominations, continues to carry the spirit established by the first Top Ten list released in 2019 and that is to highlight the potential of chemistry—and chemists—to provide solutions to the most urgent societal issues.
