About the Talented 12

C&EN’s Talented 12 Program highlights outstanding early-career researchers from industry, academia, and government who are advancing the frontiers of chemistry.

This year's class is using their scientific acumen to develop better ways to fight cancer, to harness and store energy, and to tackle harmful fluorochemicals.
