Events
Each year IUPAC endorses a large number of independently organized conferences, symposiums and workshops that cover a wide range of specialized topics in chemistry. Endorsement by IUPAC attests to the quality of the scientific program and indicates the host country’s assurance that scientists from all countries may participate. See program details. In addition, the calendar below includes webinars and workshops related to specific IUPAC projects or joint activities with associated organizations.
30th IUPAC Symposium on Photochemistry
Photochemistry is a key factor in many human endeavors, with energy and health as the most obvious areas of application. The conference, however, aims at broadly advancing the field of photochemistry for the future, both at the fundamental level and towards applications The conference is the 30th in the series of IUPAC Symposia on Photochemistry.
