Opportunity description
The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) ,in cooperation with Zhejiang NHU, is inviting young and experienced chemists for its International Award for Advancement in Green Chemistry. The Award has been established to emphasize the importance of advancements in Green Chemistry and the value of sciences to human progress, and to encourage young and experienced chemists. The award covers all the topics of Green Chemistry, such as Green and Renewable Feedstocks, Green Synthetic Routes, Green Solvents, Green Catalysis, Green products, Green Energy, and as broadly defined by OECD as Sustainable Chemistry.
Eligibility and Conditions:-
- Participants must have received their
Ph.D (or equivalent) degree, or completed all Ph.D. requirements including successful defense of their doctoral thesis within the last 3 years (2018-2020). - Qualified PhD chemists will be evaluated based on the quality of their thesis work.
- Winners of this award will be expected to submit a review article for publication in Pure and Applied Chemistry in the year following their award. The awards will be presented at the 2021 IUPAC World Chemistry Congress to be held in Montreal,
Canada, 13-20 August 2021.
The Prizes:-
- Three prizes to be awarded to three early career chemists, 2,000 US$ each.
- One prize will be awarded to an experienced chemist (10,000 US$) who should have made significant contributions to green/sustainable chemistry throughout their career.
About IUPAC:-
The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry is an international federation of National Adhering Organizations that represents chemists in individual countries. It is a member of the International Science Council. A neutral and objective scientific organization, IUPAC was established in 1919 by academic and industrial chemists who shared a common goal – to unite a fragmented, global chemistry community for the advancement of the chemical sciences via collaboration and the free exchange of scientific information. Throughout its long history IUPAC has fulfilled that goal through the creation of a common language and the standardization of processes and procedures.
