Election of IUPAC Officers, Members of the Executive Board and Science Board
Abstract
Chemistry and its adjacent subject areas are undergoing a revolution when it comes to data management, and topics such as sustainability, energy, food security, and health. As the global organisation that provides a common language for chemistry, advocates the free exchange of scientific information, and fosters sustainable development, IUPAC must plan its scientific strategy to foresee the next areas in chemistry that will need clear guidelines on standardisation and evaluated chemical data. Since January 2024, IUPAC is governed by its Officers and the Executive Board, under the oversight of the Council, while IUPAC scientific activities are overseen and managed by the Science Board.
At its next General Assembly in Kuala Lumpur in July 2025, the IUPAC Council will be asked to elect a Vice President, a Treasurer, and members of the Executive Board and Science Board. IUPAC National Adhering Organizations are invited to submit nominations no later than 31 March 2025.
On 1 January 2026, Mary Garson (Australia), Vice President and President-Elect of IUPAC, will become President. Ehud Keinan (Israel), current President, will become Past President and remain an officer and a member of the Executive Board for a period of two years, while Javier García-Martínez (Spain), current Past President, will retire.Nominations for Vice President position are invited.
Treasurer Wolfram Koch (Germany) was elected by the Council in August 2021 for a four-year term. While eligible for re-election, Wolfram Koch confirmed that he will retire at the end of 2025.Nominations for Treasurer are invited.
On both the Executive Board and Science Board, the period of service of the Elected Members is two years, and these five Members elected by Council are eligible for re-election to the same position for a second two-year term. The periods of service shall be arranged in such a way as to ensure continuity. The principle of fair geographical and gender representation of Members shall be taken into account, as stipulated in the IUPAC Statutes. All current Elected Members are eligible for re-election.Nominations are invited.
Further information on these roles can be found by contacting the Secretary General, Zoltán Mester (zmester@iupac.org), or in the IUPAC Statutes and Bylaws.
