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.
Progress with Standards in Chemistry: From Analog to Digital
Symposium part of ACS Fall 2026 (Chicago) Division of Chemical Information | exact date tba This symposium will focus on the evolution of chemistry standards and the impact on communicating chemistry from analog beginnings through to the digital age and entering the AI era. Inspired by a desire to celebrate the contribution to IUPAC and […]
22nd International Symposium on Solubility Phenomena and Related Equilibrium Processes
Solubility phenomena are fundamental to industries and environmental sciences, shaping chemical processes, sustainability efforts, and public health. Their growing relevance these days is evident across various fields, including: - Environmental Sustainability – Supporting pollution control, water protection, and soil remediation. - Resource Efficiency – Enhancing material recovery and recycling. - Energy Storage – Optimizing battery […]
27th IUPAC International Conference on Physical Organic Chemistry
Since its inception in 1972, the International Conferences on Physical Organic Chemistry, ICPOC, have been the leading international gatherings on physical organic chemistry and its applications. Traditionally, physical organic chemistry relates molecular structure to chemical behavior, by means of the study of structure, reactivity, mechanism, and equilibrium in organic systems, aiming at the quantitative, molecular level […]
