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.
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 […]
11th IUPAC International Conference on Green Chemistry
The IUPAC International Committee on Green Chemistry for Sustainable Development, the Portuguese Chemical Society |SPQ, the NOVA School of Science and Technology | NOVA FCT and the University of Lisbon | ULisboa cordially invite you to attend the 11th edition of IUPAC International Conference on Green Chemistry | #GreenIUPAC2026, that will be held September 8 to 12, 2026, at the Rectorate of the NOVA University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal. The #GreenIUPAC2026 aims to bring together all relevant stakeholders from academia, research, industry, NGOs, policy makers and society, to exchange and disseminate…
21st International Conference on Retinal Proteins
The 21st International Conference on Retinal Proteins (ICRP2026) will be held in Siena, Italy, from September 14th to 19th, 2026. ICRP2026 focuses on the Photophysics, Photochemistry and Photobiology of the, arguably, more extended and diffuse biological photoreceptor family of our planet (more than 500,000 known members found in organisms belonging to all kingdoms of life) including […]
26th Isoprenoid Conference
This conference historically brings together natural products chemists from around the globe and shows searching, research, utilization and biological activity of natural products, namely, the isoprenoids. The 26th Isoprenoid conference will be organized at Novotného Lávka buildings on the Vltava river bank, close to the Charles Bridge. The building complex belongs to the Czech Association […]
Next Horizons in Polymers
IUPAC-PSK50 International Conference on Next Horizons in Polymers: Beyond the past 50, toward the next 100 The IUPAC-PSK50 conference aims to bring world-leading scientists and researchers to exchange the latest experiences and researches on all aspects of polymer science, engineering and the related fields. Commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Polymer Society of Korea, it […]
Polymer-solvent Complexes and Intercalates (POLYSOLVAT-16)
The conference focuses on the formation mechanisms, morphology, molecular structure, and properties of compounds formed between solvent molecules and/or small molecules with synthetic polymers and biopolymers, proteins, and supramolecular polymers (self-organized systems), taking into account both fundamental aspects and the application potential. The bulk state, solutions, and systems formed at surfaces/interfaces will be considered, with […]
Chemistry Education for Environmental Restoration and Innovation – ACRICE 2026
7th African Conference on Research in Chemistry Education (ACRICE) The 7th African Conference on Research in Chemistry Education (ACRICE) brings together educators, researchers, industry leaders, and policymakers from across Africa […]
16th International Symposium on Ionic Polymerization (IP´26)
Ionic polymerizations play a key role for many industrially prepared materials, such as thermoplastic elastomers and surfactants as well as pharmaceutical polymers (e.g., polyethylene glycol). Current developments in academia include […]
POLY-CHAR 2026 – Smart, Sustainable & Data-Driven Polymeric Materials
The main aim of this conference for nearly 30 years has been to bring together both academia and industry at all levels; this includes researchers involved in experiments, theory, computer simulations, and artificial intelligent to achieve a systemic understanding of the connections between the structures, properties, and applications of all types of polymers. Based on […]
