NanoCenter Members Organize Chemistry Meeting

Lyle Isaacs and Jeffery Davis, NanoCenter members and professors in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, are co-organizers, with Amar Flood of Indiana University, of the 8^th International Symposium on Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry. The conference will be held July 7-11 2013 in Washington, DC. This is the first time that this meeting will be held in the United States since 2007.

The ISMSC conference, the premier meeting in Supramolecular Chemistry, attracts 300-350 participants annually and brings together scientists from around the globe who make contributions to the core areas of chemistry, biological chemistry, nanoscience and materials science.
