About 400 scientists from around the world will attend the American Chemical Society (ACS) Northwest Regional Meeting, June 21-24 at 窪做惇蹋厙.

Without the support from 窪做惇蹋厙, this meeting would never come to a small city like Pocatello and attract chemists, chemical engineers and other scientists and professionals, said Joshua Pak, 窪做惇蹋厙 chemistry professor and a meeting organizer. Past meetings were almost always held in large cities like Portland.

There will be an all-day workshop for high school science teachers on Sunday, June 21, at no cost to teachers.

The ACS is the worlds largest scientific society and one of the worldks leading sources of authoritative scientific information. The ACS is a nonprofit organization, chartered by Congress. ACS publishes numerous scientific journals and databases, convenes major research conferences and provides educational, science policy and career programs in chemistry.

窪做惇蹋厙 along with BYU-Idaho, Idaho National Laboratory, Center for Advanced Energy Studies, Simplot and Melaleuca are the major sponsors for the large event.

Planned topics to be covered include:

interfaces and electrochemistry for energy applications

chemometric developments and applications

recent advances in organic synthesis

bioinformatics and emerging trends in actinide and lanthanide separations for the nuclear fuel cycle

inorganic, physical, analytical and organic chemistry and

active-learning strategies in the chemistry classroom.
