The Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry—Call for Proposals for 2020
Abstract
IUPAC has released its call for proposals to identify the top ten emerging technologies in chemistry with the results to be announced in 2020.
This initiative began in 2018 in recognition of IUPAC’s Centenary in 2019, and while it was created to kick off IUPAC’s anniversary year in a very visible way, the end goal was to showcase the value of chemistry (and chemists!) and to inform the general public as to how the chemical sciences contribute to the well-being of society and the sustainability of Planet Earth. The finalists for 2019 were announced in April 2019 and detailed in the April/June 2019 issue of Chemistry International (CI).
The call for the 2020 proposals is now open. Anyone can submit one or more proposals—this call for proposals is open to the global science community as well as to the general public.
Call for proposals—deadline 31 October 2019
