Boletim Química

Pré-Publicação de Manuscritos Aceites no QUÍMICA

O QUÍMICA, Boletim da SPQ, já possui um sistema de pré-publicação online dos manuscritos aceites.

Espera-se, desta forma, ir ao encontro da expectativa dos autores verem o seu trabalho publicado o mais rapidamente possível através da diminuição significativa do tempo entre a submissão dos manuscritos e a sua pré-publicação. É objetivo da equipa editorial que entre a submissão dos manuscritos e a sua eventual aceitação e pré-publicação não decorram mais de 6 semanas. Fica desde já o convite para ir acompanhando a atualização da página no endereço https://www.spq.pt/boletim/manuscritos-aceites.

Refira-se, ainda, que a submissão de manuscritos passou a ser efetuada através de uma plataforma criada para o efeito, que pode ser acedida através do menu Normas de Colaboração e Instruções para os Autores.

Aguardamos pelo vosso contributo. Publique no QUÍMICA!

Chemistry Europe Signs Collaboration Agreement with EFMC

The Chemistry Europe journals ChemMedChem and ChemBioChem will become official journals of the European Federation for Medicinal chemistry and Chemical biology (EFMC).

Evolving from the already existing interactions and synergies with the two journals, a collaboration agreement has been established that aims to increase the visibility of ChemMedChem and ChemBioChem, bring valuable additional benefits to readers, authors, and early-career researchers, and thus strengthen the science of medicinal chemistry and chemical biology.

Submissions are encouraged.

4th IYCN Experiment Outreach Competition

The IYCN is hosting its fourth annual Experiment Outreach Competition under the theme of "Affordable and Clean Energy".
The competition is related to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 7 (https://sdgs.un.org/goals) and aims to highlight chemistry for sustainable solutions.
Experiments should be targeted at the general public and convey basic chemistry principles. A template and more information about how to submit your experiment is available at: https://iycnglobal.wixsite.com/competition. Applications must be submitted via the online portal at: https://iycnglobal.wixsite.com/competition/submissions.
The experiments will be peer-reviewed and the winners will get published online, receive a cash prize of 500 USD, and be added to our experiment database.
Do not miss this unique opportunity to share the joy and brilliance of chemistry with your peers for outreach!
Submissions are accepted until JUNE 25th, 2022, at 11:59 PM GMT.
We're very much looking forward to receiving your submissions!

The IYCN Virtual Workshop Series on Professional Development Skills - Non-Traditional Career Paths for Chemists

Have you ever wondered the different career paths you can take as a chemist? Were you looking for a career in chemistry away from laboratory or research environment that you enjoy and matches your personal interests? Chemists can deploy their skills and knowledge in many ways and in less commonly known fields such as consulting, intellectual property, sales and services, science communication, among others.
In this free live workshop, the International Younger Chemists Network (IYCN) will host three chemists that will share their career paths and highlight some non-traditional careers that those with a chemistry background can pursue.
Join us to hear, learn and engage in a panel discussion with Lucy Padget (Patent Attorney, Alembia Intellectual Property, UK), Dr. Maritza Quintero (Medical Writing Consultant, USA) and Cristian Aviles-Martin (Technical Consultant, USA) in our upcoming free live virtual workshop that will take place on JUNE 20th from 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm CEST (4:00-5:30 pm Portuguese time).

The IYCN Conference Presence Committee is launching a series of Science Cafés focusing on the IUPAC Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry

Since 2019, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has been announcing every year a list of Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry that are expected to have a huge impact in our lives by contributing to the well-being of society and the sustainability of our planet. These technologies are intended to help in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as defined by the United Nations 2030 Agenda.
The IYCN is organizing a series of talks entitled "IYCN Science Café" that puts the focus on the IUPAC 2021 Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry. The IYCN Science Café, which will tackle some of the emerging technologies in chemistry, will be a bimonthly live 1 hour session split into a 30 min talk plus 30 min Q&A session aiming to answer the curiosities and questions raised by the audience. We aim to cover one emerging technology per Science Café by inviting experienced scientists on the topic.
The first event will be held on JULY 1st at 5:00 PM CEST and will count on Prof. Javier García Martínez, President of IUPAC, who will introduce and contextualize the aims of the yearly released IUPAC Top Ten Emerging Technologies in Chemistry, highlight how this initiative started, how the technologies are selected and by whom, and answer any questions you may have.
Curious about this project and willing to learn more about this IUPAC initiative? Join us on July 1st!

New IYCN/IUPAC Joint Project "Global Conversation on Sustainability"

We are pleased to announce the launch of a new IYCN/IUPAC joint project entitled "Global Conversation on Sustainability" (GCS).
The GCS project is aligned with the goals of IUPAC and the IYCN to tackle the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) by raising awareness and implementing sustainable practices on a chemistry basis. It aims to connect and engage chemists and related professionals from the chemistry enterprise in taking effective actions towards sustainability targeting the SDGs and keeping track of their progress.
We plan to coordinate a one-day virtual event worldwide every year focusing on sustainability towards a common good. Each event will be independently organized and this year it will take place on SEPTEMBER 25th!
Please note it down and actively join us in this global conversation by organizing your own event!
We will be providing guidelines about the event framework soon through instructional videos and manuals for easy information access and to promote the engagement of the chemistry community globally. Possible formats include panel discussions, breakout room sessions and lecture series. More information on the project can be found via the following link: https://www.iycnglobal.com/collaborations.
Please do keep an eye on the IYCN and IUPAC websites and social media channels for updates on this project, including the launch of a website fully devoted to this project, and engage in the conversation!
