Dear Young Chemists from Europe, on behalf of the EYCN executive board, the RJ-SCF announces that the call for abstracts for the 2018 Young Chemists Crossing Borders (YCCB) exchange is now open.

Please find details in the attached document : (pdf – 217.3 ko)

This is an amazing opportunity for 4 European young chemists to attend the 256th ACS National Meeting and Exposition this year in Boston. The theme of the meeting will be « Nanoscience, Nanotechnology & Beyond » and will showcase research from many diverse topics and areas of the chemical sciences. The award covers accommodation, most meals, conference fees and a site visit to a chemical research facility. The award winners must fund their travel to and from Boston.

Applicants are asked to submit :

• One scientific abstract (award winners are expected to present their work during the conference), a CV (two pages maximum)
• One cover letter detailing their motivation for applying (one page maximum).

The deadline is March 9th 2018 (CET). The candidates will be judged according to high standards of scientific qualifications, their engagement and commitment to the scientific community on a national and international level, and their ability to represent the new European elite in front of the American Chemical Society.

Please, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact Alice & Torsten (EYCN Chair & Secretary) at the following e-mail : secretary@eycn.eu.

Good luck !

Maxime ROSSATO, secretary and head of communication of the RJ-SCF
