The 2010 International Chemical Congress of Pacific Basin Societies (Pacifichem), will take place in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA, December 15 - 20, 2010. Pacifichem is sponsored jointly by the American Chemical Society (ACS), the Canadian Society for Chemistry (CSC), the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ), the New Zealand Institute of Chemistry (NZIC), the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI), the Korean Chemical Society (KCS), and the Chinese Chemical Society (CCS).
For Pacifichem 2010, The Canadian Society for Chemistry is the host society. Professor Howard Alper, University of Ottawa, is the Chair of the Congress. Professor Peter Stang, University of Utah, and Professor Kazuyuki Tatsumi, Nagoya University, are the two Congress Vice-Chairs, representing the ACS and CSJ respectively.
Pacifichem involves other Pacific Rim chemical societies in the Congress as Official Participating Organizations. Official Participating Organizations may register for Pacifichem at society rates.
Pacifichem 2010 is the sixth in the series of very successful Pacifichem Congresses. Founded in 1984, these conferences have been held in Honolulu, Hawaii, approximately every five years. Pacifichem 2010’s goal is to promote collaborations among Pacific Basin chemical scientists that improve the quality of life throughout the world. It features a program highlighting such recent research contributions. |
