Congratulations to WesTEC 2024 Award Winners

05 Dec 2024

This year, the Royal Society of Chemistry was again proud to support the Western Canada Operations Science and Technical Excellence Conference (WesTEC), hosted by Dow Canada. The yearly event celebrates the achievements of scientists and professionals conducting research and development within Dow Canada.

The theme of the 33rd WesTEC was “From Vision to Reality,” exemplified by Dow Canada’s progress in 2024 towards implementing to their previously announced Path2Zero project, which seeks to create the world’s first net-zero scope 1 and 2 emissions ethylene and derivatives complex in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta.

As in previous years, the Royal Society of Chemistry sponsored the Best Presentation and Best Exhibit award winners at the 2024 WesTEC. This year, the Best Presentation award was given to Megan Finstad and Andrew Tan, and the Best Exhibit award was given to Justin Kaban and Audrey Sidebottom. The Royal Society of Chemistry would like to express our heartfelt congratulations to all the prize winners, and we look forward to next year’s WesTEC!

Best Presentation: Megan Finstad and Andrew Tan

Nominations for the 2025 RSC Prizes are Now Open

31 Oct 2024

Each year, the RSC recognizes outstanding members of the chemical community through the RSC Prizes, which distinguish exceptional groups, teams, and individuals for a variety of accomplishments. While some prizes are limited to those living in the UK or Ireland, there are over 20 prizes open to those elsewhere in the world.

Nominations are now open for the 2025 RSC Prizes, and will close 17:00 GMT (12:00 EST) on Tuesday, January 14th, 2025.

To highlight three categories of prizes:

Horizon Prizes: recognize a group, team or collaboration who are opening up new directions and possibilities in their field, making discoveries and innovations that push the boundaries of science. Teams can be any size, from a small research group to a multi-institution, multi-national collaboration, and self-nomination is permitted.
Research & Innovation Prizes: recognize exceptional individuals who are advancing the chemical sciences, working in academia and industry. We have open prizes with no career-related eligibility criteria in multiple scientific fields. Alongside this we also have the Centenary Prizes for Chemistry and Communication (up to 3 prizes available), which recognize outstanding scientists who are also exceptional communicators.
Inclusion & Diversity Prize: recognises team or individual whose work is has had impact in improving the accessibility, inclusivity, and diversity of the chemical science community

Click here to search the 2025 RSC Prizes open for nominations outside of the UK and Ireland, and if you would like more information see the Guidance for Nominators and our FAQ.

The award recipients are selected by their departments for demonstrating exceptional dedication, performance, and engagement in coursework and research. Example qualifications include students who:

Are within the top 5-10% of their class in subject-specific and overall coursework
Participate and excel in undergraduate research projects
Have taken on leadership roles in their department and community
Persevered in their program despite facing significant challenges

Upon receiving the award from their institution, winners receive:

An invitation to join in publishing training provided by RSC journal editorial teams, with a certificate of completion endorsed by Chemical Communications executive editor, Dr. Richard Kelly
An RSC Affiliate Membership or copy of The Merck Index (15th edition) (selected by the institution)

Recently, the 2023-2024 award period closed, and we would like to celebrate this year’s awardees. Click here to view a full list of the recognized students.

Highlighting WesTEC 2023: Advancing Possiblities

01 Dec 2023

For the seventh year, the Royal Society of Chemistry was delighted to support the Western Canada Operations Science and Technical Excellence Conference (WesTEC), hosted by Dow Canada. This year marked the 32nd WesTEC, which showcases and recognizes outstanding developments and achievements within Dow Canada. This year’s theme of “Advancing Possibilities” serves to recognize the challenges the world faces, and the vital role of the chemical sciences in meeting those challenges.

Dow’s dedication to create the world’s first net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions ethylene and derivatives complex, as well as their commitment to transition completely to net-zero emissions by 2050, demonstrates their determination to build a more sustainable planet. The Royal Society of Chemistry is proud to support Dow’s efforts and play a role in highlighting the outstanding achievements of the scientists working there.

As in previous years, the Royal Society of Chemistry was thrilled to sponsor the Best Presentation and Best Exhibit awards at the 2023 WesTEC. This year, the Best Presentation award was given to Ramadan Ahmed and the Best Exhibit award was given to Jenny Boutros and Steven Stack. Congratulations to the winners, and we look forward to next year!

Best Presentation: Ramadan Ahmed

Congratulations to the winners of the 2023 Certificates of Undergraduate Excellence!

04 Aug 2023

We are proud to announce the winners of this year’s Certificates of Undergraduate Excellence, the Royal Society of Chemistry’ recognition program for university students in North America. This is the first group of award winners after the award was relaunched in 2022 to focus on the achievements of undergraduate students in the chemical sciences. The recipients were selected by their departments for their exceptional dedication, performance, and engagement in coursework and research.

77 students received the Certificate of Undergraduate Excellence this year from 53 institutions across North America, and each winner will receive (in addition to the certificate) their department’s choice of:

RSC Affiliate membership
A printed edition of the Merck Index
An invitation to join a publishing training session provided by RSC journal editorial teams

Join the Materials Horizons and Nanoscale Horizons Community Board!

07 Jun 2023

Do you know an early career researcher or PhD candidate interested in materials science and/or nanoscience? Are they interested in participating the development of two of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s journals? If so, now is the time to nominate them for the Materials Horizons and Nanoscale Horizons Community Board!

The Community Board is a group of early career researchers and students who work with the journals’ Executive Editors and Editorial Boards to guide how the journals can best support the community of students, postdoctoral researchers, and early career researchers interested in Materials Horizons and Nanoscale Horizons. They provide feedback on the community’s perception of the journals, help guide the journals’ engagement through suggested themed collections and Focus Article topics, and suggest education-focused initiatives for the journals to support the community.

If you are interested in nominating someone for the Materials Horizons and Nanoscale Horizons Community Board, submissions are open through July 19th, 2023. Check out the post on the Materials Horizons Blog for full details on eligibility, nomination process, and more details about the role of the Community Board.
