The 38^thIUPAC International Conference on Solution Chemistry (38ICSC) was held in Belgrade, Serbia, 9-14 July 2023. The ICSC continued the tradition and fostered interaction among the various research communities worldwide. For the first time, ICSC was organized by two universities from two countries (University of Ljubljana, Slovenia and University of Novi Sad, Serbia). During the event, 130 participants from 32 different countries presented and discussed the new findings on various scientific and technological issues related to solution chemistry. With the advent of new theories, analytical methods, computers and technologies, the research field of solution chemistry has expanded widely and profoundly covering the following topics:

Ionic liquids
Solution thermodynamics
Biochemical effects in solutions
Solubility phenomena and phase equilibria
Solution structure and dynamics
Supercritical fluids and solutions under extreme conditions
Colloids and interfaces
Computational solution chemistry
General solution chemistry
Industrial applications of solutions.

The scientific program included 6 prominent plenary and 13 invited keynote speakers. The program and the book of abstracts are available online and can be downloaded from the conference web page https://icsc2023.pmf.uns.ac.rs/.

Five prizes for the best poster presentations were given to young scientists. The awarded students are: Lukas Magenhiam (TU Wien Austria), Andrijana Bilić (University of Novi Sad, Serbia), Aditi Prabhune (Department of Chemistry, Goa, India), Pavlina Matysova (University Usti and Labem, Czech Republic) and Domen Goste (University of Ljubljana, Slovenia).

IUPAC provided financial support that helped six scientists from emerging countries to participate at 38ICSC. Also, the travel expenses for the IUPAC representative were partially covered using the IUPAC support.

During the steering committee meeting it was decided that the 39^th ICSC will be held in September 2025 in the town of Monastir in Tunisia.
