Overcoming boundaries together and shaping the future of chemistry - under this guiding principle, the German Chemical Society (GDCh) is inviting you to the GDCh Science Forum Chemistry (SFC) at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) from September 29 to October 1, 2025. The redesigned event offers chemists a unique platform for interdisciplinary exchange, international networking and forward-looking impulses. A top-class program of plenary lectures, sessions and exciting discussion rounds creates the ideal framework for lively debates and fruitful collaborations.
Highlights include plenary lectures by internationally renowned scientists such as Dr. Josep Cornella from the Max Planck Institute for Coal Research in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Professor Dr. Eva Hevia from the University of Bern, Switzerland, Professor Dr. Anat Milo from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, and Professor Dr. Helma Wennemers from ETH Zurich, Switzerland. Numerous GDCh specialist groups will enrich the program with (partly interdisciplinary) sessions in which they will offer exclusive insights into their current research. A joint session of the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the GDCh will focus on sustainability in chemistry. The GDCh's newly developed sustainability strategy will also be presented.
As a special extra, the 200th anniversary of KIT will provide an opportunity to look back on a long tradition of excellent science and at the same time set the course for a promising future.
