ACS Science Talks
For the scientific community across the globe, our efforts will continue beyond these sessions for discussing science, manuscript writing, peer-review support, and resources to help you advance in your career.
Together we can build on ACS’s history of excellence in service to the science enterprise, enriching the process of scientific information discovery and communication.
Today, two-thirds of authors publishing in ACS journals conduct their research in laboratories outside the United States and India plays a pivotal role in this contribution. Recognizing the importance of India as a major force in scientific research, the team at American Chemical Society is delighted to have the opportunity to connect with you through these virtual lectures.
We welcome our worldwide authors and readers to join us on this exciting journey.
