Chemistry education is a field concerned with teaching and learning of chemistry. The content of Chemistry education research (CER) ranges from understanding the history and philosophy of chemistry, which guides on us how chemistry knowledge was developed, to the application of emerging technologies and tools for more effective teaching and learning of chemistry. CER has grown as a field substantially over the past 60 years but is still a relatively young subdiscipline of chemistry. Although substantial progress has been made in identifying evidence-based strategies to support the teaching and learning of chemistry, we have yet to realize widespread systemic change regarding how chemistry is taught at the secondary school and tertiary levels. Connecting chemistry educators at the secondary education level with chemistry education researchers in academia has never been more vitally needed, and yet these groups are still frustratingly divided.

Conferences, congresses and symposiums in CER serve as a medium to bring together practitioners and researchers to exchange ideas and recent developments. ICCE is one of the leading biannual conferences in CER initiated back in 1969 by IUPAC and ECRICE is the European equivalent run by the Division of Chemical Education of EuChemS. Turkish Chemical Society (TCS) organized the 18th ICCE in 2004 and also the 9th ECRICE in 2008. The joint organization of 28th ICCE & 17th ECRICE (ICCECRICE 2026) will bring the experience of ICCE and ECRICE back to Türkiye, which had been experienced in 2012 in Rome-Italy.

We welcome all chemistry education researchers from all over the World in Erzurum, Türkiye on July 13-17, 2026.

The Royal Flemish Chemical Society (KVCV) is delighted and honoured to host the 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress (ECC10), July 12-16 2026, in Antwerp, Belgium, in the Flanders Meeting & Convention Center Antwerp (FMCCA).

The 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress will have an exciting scientific programme with world-leading plenary speakers, invited speakers and short oral presentations, supplemented with a series of poster presentations.

This Congress is the 10th in a series that started in Budapest in 2006, and since then has been held in several cities across Europe before reaching Antwerp. The EuChemS Congresses are noted for their excellent scientific level. They allow all the attendees and participants to listen to and interact with some of the most celebrated researchers in the world.

Antwerp is a metropolis on a human scale, situated in the heart of Europe, and has a lot to offer. Despite its relatively small size, it boasts the biggest port area in Europe and a vast offering of cultural, historical, and culinary delights enhanced by more than 170 nationalities. Antwerp is home to shopping centres, boutiques, museums, start-up hubs, premium hotels, and the historical home of Rubens. Additionally, the world’s largest diamond trade hub is within walking distance. Antwerp embraces heritage and innovation, business and leisure, global ambitions, and a genuine concern for nurturing a highly enjoyable quality of life for all its residents and visitors.

Antwerp houses the largest integrated chemical cluster of Europe, extending over the borders into The Netherlands, and Nordrhein-Westfalen in Germany, to form a chemical ‘center of gravity’. The chemical companies in these three regions are strongly interconnected and offer innovative solutions for the global challenges of today and tomorrow. Moreover, there is also an important pharma and life sciences industry.

The FMCCA state-of-the art congress center is located in the heart of Antwerp, right next to Antwerp Central train station, making it easily accessible domestically, as well as internationally. It is directly connected to and provides magnificent views on the green oasis that is the Zoo, right next to it. FMCCA, which only opened in 2016, is equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment, lighting, and other technical amenities. FMCCA is surrounded by nature, tropical animals and the most beautiful garden. The venue is committed to sustainability and eco-friendliness, with various measures in place to minimise its environmental impact. This philosophy is also translated into delicious, often vegetarian dishes and high-quality choices. By hosting the ECC at FMCCA, we directly support the field of animal welfare, heritage, breeding programmes, research and nature conservation worldwide through the Antwerp ZOO Society.

The Canadian Societies for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering 2026 Conferences and Exhibition (x2026), hosted by the CSC and CSChE will provide access to an expanded array of technical sessions, workshops, and keynote presentations, while promoting multidisciplinarity and offering diverse viewpoints on the opportunities and challenges facing those working in the chemical sciences, technologists, and engineering fields. The distinct identities and independence of CSC and CSChE will be maintained.

The Central Massachusetts Local Section of the American Chemical Society will be hosting the 2025 Northeast Regional Discussion (NERD 2025) on Saturday, November 1 2025 on the campus of Worcester State University. The theme of the meeting will focus on “Supporting and Advancing Pharmaceutical Innovation and Education in the Northeast”. This one-day conference will include an Inclusion Breakfast, 9 separate program tracks with featured oral presentation and poster sessions spread out throughout the day, and culminate in a plenary session, award presentation, and afterparty for those feeling especially “NERDy”. We look forward to welcoming you to Worcester later this year!

The American Chemical Society Central New Mexico Local Section will host the 2025 Rocky Mountain Regional Meeting in Albuquerque, NM.  Join us for 3 days of science and networking.  We are planning for a diverse technical program with both oral and poster presentations, an exposition, and the presentation of several regional awards.
