Introduction
Challenges in Organic Chemistry and Chemical Biology will be the first event in the International Symposia on Advancing the Chemical Sciences (ISACS) series in 2012.Organic chemistry is a core area of chemistry. Fundamental research in synthesis is leading to innovation through process improvement and invention of new types of transformations. Novel procedures can create the new substances which society needs to develop.
The Scientific Committee warmly invites you to take part in ISACS7 and looks forward to welcoming you to Edinburgh.
