RSC Advances is very pleased to be sponsoring the Chemistry Conference for Young Scientists (ChemCYS) in Blankenberge, Belgium, 19 – 21 February 2020.

ChemCYS is organised by the Royal Flemish Chemical Society (KVCV) and endorsed by the European Chemical Society (EuChemS) and the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). It gives young attendees the opportunity to present early results of their research from a variety of subjects, including analytical chemistry, biochemistry and biotechnology, environmental chemistry, food chemistry, macromolecular chemistry, medicinal chemistry and many more!

The plenary speakers at this year’s event are:

• Professor Dr Sarah E. O’Connor, The University of East Anglia, UK; Planck Institute of Chemical Ecology, Germany
• Professor Dr Javier García Martínez, Director of the Molecular Nanotechnology Lab at the University of Alicante, Spain; Founder and Chief Scientist of Rive Technology Inc, Boston MA, USA
• Professor Dr Krzysztof Matyjaszewski, J. C. Warner University Professor of Natural Sciences and Director of the Center for Macromolecular Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

ChemCYS also features KaféCV, an entrance level networking event where participants get to know various companies and their recruitment policies. KaféCV focusses on career development rather than existing vacancies.
