BUWIC will host a breakfast to join chemists near and far one week prior to the launch of the IYC. Following the lead of Mary Garson’s activity, “Women Sharing a Chemical Moment in Time,” BUWIC along with fellow chemists from more than 25 countries, will celebrate the achievements of women in science and discuss the future of scientific education and research in developed and underdeveloped societies.
Please join BUWIC, and bring your ideas and opinions regarding the fulfillment of IYC’s goals for the 2011 year in chemistry:
- Increase the public appreciation and understanding of chemistry in meeting world needs
- Encourage the interest of young people in chemistry
- Generate enthusiasm for the creative future of chemistry
- Celebrate the role of women in chemistry or major historical events in chemistry, including the centenaries of Madame Curie’s Nobel Prize and the founding of the International Association of Chemical Societies
