ISACS18: Challenges in Organic Materials and Supramolecular Chemistry in Bangalore

16 Dec 2015

Over 160 delegates from 14 countries signed up for the first International Symposia on Advancing the Chemical Sciences (ISACS) meeting in India to discuss ground-breaking research in organic materials and supramolecular chemistry. Held at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore on 19-21 November, with an international scientific committee led by Professor S Ramakrishnan, this was the culmination of the ISACS series in 2015.

ISACS18

Professor Ramakrishnan, Chair of the Scientific Committee, delivers the opening remarks at ISACS18

Focusing on five key topic areas, all the scientific talks were extremely well-received, from engineering interfaces through the assembly of minerals and nutrients with Frank Caruso, to self-assembly and self-healing by molecular recognition with Akira Harada, to stimuli-responsive fluorescent molecular assemblies with Ayyappanpillai Ajayaghosh, and to rectification in single-molecule junctions with Latha Venkataraman. Exciting discussions also took place on the latest developments in bio-inspired and bio-relevant supramolecular systems, as the participants enjoyed outstanding contributions from Stefan Matile, Sijbren Otto and Jan van Esch, to name a few.

The poster sessions were extremely lively with 84 presenters discussing their work. Three poster prizes were presented, sponsored by Chemical Science, ChemComm and Chemistry World.

Ajith Mallia (L) and Emmanuel Etim won the Chemical Science and Chemistry World poster prizes, respectively

The Chemical Science-sponsored poster prize went to Ajith Ravi Mallia (IISER-Thiruvananthapuram) for his poster on how light-harvesting vesicular donor-acceptor scaffold limits the rate of charge recombination in the presence of an electron donor, while the ChemComm poster prize was won by Pritam Mukhopadhyay (Jawaharlal Nehru University) for his research on highly ambient stable naphthalenediimide-based radicals and radical ions. PhD student Emmanuel Etim received the Chemistry World poster prize (together with the customary mug) for his work on interstellar hydrogen bonding.

A Chemistry World panel discussion on building successful industry-academia collaborations discussed the challenges and advantages of partnerships between these two groups.

Royal Society of Chemistry members and ISACS18 delegates also enjoyed a special reception and conference dinner at the Fairfield Marriott.

The next instalment of the ISACS conference series on the theme of Challenges in Organic Materials and Supramolecular Chemistry will be held in conjuction with the International Symposium on Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry (ISMSC) meeting on 2-6 July 2017 in Cambridge, UK – more details on registration and abstract submission dates to be announced next year.

ISACS16: Challenges in Chemical Biology in Zurich

30 Jun 2015

Professor Shankar Balasubramanian gives the opening talk at ISACS 16

From 15-18th June, the lecture theatre at ETH Zurich was almost full as delegates from 26 different countries gathered to hear the latest research in the field of Chemical Biology as we continued our series of International Symposia on Advancing the Chemical Sciences.

Across the 4 days of the conference we were treated to a diverse range of topics, from the very beginnings of life as we know it with John Sutherland to the latest diagnostic markers in various stages of clinical trials with Annette Beck-Sickinger, Yasuteru Urano and others. We also enjoyed various contributions on the latest synthetic developments to smooth the process of discoveries and heard about the latest natural product being identified and their potential applications.

Eugenio Indrigo with his Chemical Science poster prize certificate

We were delighted to have an enthusiatic participation in our “flash” poster presentations (just three minutes each) and overall around 80 posters were displayed and discussed during the event.

The Chemical Science sponsored poster prize was won by Eugenio Indrigo (University of Edinburgh) for his poster on “Palladium mediated chemistry in living cells, while the Chemistry World poster prize (and associated mug!) was won by Oliver ThornSeshold (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich). Congratulations to them both!

Peng Chen is presented with the 2014 Chem Soc Rev Emerging Investigator lectureship

The final talk of the meeting was the 2014 Chem Soc Rev Emerging Investigator lecture, given by Prof. Peng Chen (Peking University) entitled “Exogenous chemistry for intracellular protein manipulations” and was an impressive overview of the exciting work being done in his lab.

We look forward to announcing the next installment of the ISACS conference series on the theme of Challenges in Chemical Biology in the near future…
