1st Polymer Chemistry International Symposium

The 1st Polymer Chemistry International Symposium took place in China this year. The purpose of RSC journal symposia is to bring together scientists in a stimulating and friendly environment that will foster collaborations between the researchers and the universities involved in the meetings.

The symposium comprised of three one-day meetings held at three separate institutions. Each one day meeting featured talks by Polymer Chemistry international speakers from the journal's Editorial Board, in addition to a collection of local speakers. The symposium was organised by Polymer Chemistry, the Royal Society of Chemistry and the local host organisations. The meetings will take place at Tsinghua University (Beijing), Soochow University and Fudan University (Shanghai).

The symposium will appeal to academic and industrial scientists with an interest in all aspects of synthetic and biological macromolecules. Attendance at the symposium is free of charge and student participation is strongly encouraged.
