About ChemSci-2023

CHEMSCI2023 : LEADERS IN THE FIELD SYMPOSIUM is being held in India for young investigators in the field of chemistry. This will be the fourth edition of the RSC sponsored symposium and is organized by The Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) Bangalore in association with the Chemical Science journal from January 23 to 25, 2023.

Under the banner of our flagship open access journal, Chemical Science, we’ll be shining a spotlight on cutting-edge chemistry research and giving it the sort of attention that drives scientific progress and makes a difference. We warmly invite you to join us for the series of journal symposia, and look forward to welcoming you at this online event.

This in-person meeting at JNCASR Bangalore aims at providing a forum to the rapidly growing chemistry community in India especially to the young and early career researchers.
