  • Horizon Europe - EU Multiannual Financial Framework
    30 November 2018 Dear Prime Minister / Chancellor / Taoiseach / President, Horizon Europe - EU Multiannual Financial Framework (a letter to Heads of State or Government, signed by Nobel Prize and other international award winners and CEOs and Chairmen of leading European companies) At the European Council meeting in December, European leaders will discuss the 2021-2027 EU Multiannual Financial Framework, including the budget to be assigned to Research and Innovation, mainly through the next framework programme Horizon Europe. On this occasion, we want to remind them of the economic impact and the tangible improvements to European citizens' lives that have been generated over the years by the EU framework programmes for Research and Innovation. We urge Europe’s Heads of State or Government to support or even to increase the investment in Horizon Europe. €120 billion was seen as the absolute minimum to make Europe a global frontrunner by the High Level Group set by the European Commission and chaired by Pascal Lamy. Indeed, EU-funded research had a decisive impact and positively contributed to various areas, such as avoiding unnecessary chemotherapy for breast cancer patients; opening the way to batteries and solar cells of the next generation; reducing aircraft emissions and noise; enhancing cybersecurity; qualifying the future impact of artificial intelligence on jobs; etc. European industry underlines that the EU framework programmes help companies to build up know-how, have access to the “state-of-the-art”, achieve synergies and critical mass, access highly skilled and talented people, and network with customers and suppliers. EU-funded research has made an immense contribution to creating and disseminating scientific knowledge indispensable for innovation to flourish.

  • The 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2016; 88(10-11): 917–918 Editorial Hugh D. Burrows* and Richard M. Hartshorn* The 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry DOI 10.1515/pac-2016-2005 Keywords: Ben L. Feringa; Jean-Pierre Sauvage; J. Fraser Stoddart; Nobel Prize in Chemistry; 2016. Pure and Applied Chemistry warmly congratulates Jean-Pierre Sauvage (University of Strasbourg, France), Sir J. Fraser Stoddart (Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, USA), and Bernard (Ben) L. Feringa (Univer- sity of Groningen, the Netherlands) on their award of the 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The citation from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences states that the award is “for the design and synthesis of molecu- lar machines”. Their work encompasses a broad spectrum of Chemistry, from elegant synthetic studies of catenanes, rotaxanes and other formerly considered exotic molecules, through coordination chemistry, and electron transfer reactions, to molecular switches and rotors driven by light and other external sources. They have all participated actively in IUPAC endorsed meetings and conference series, including the IUPAC World Congress in Chemistry, IUPAC International Conferences on Organic Synthesis (ICOS), Physical Organic Chemistry (ICPOC), and Coordination Chemistry (ICCC), and IUPAC International Symposia on Macrocyclic Chemistry (ISMC), Organometallic Chemistry Directed Towards Organic Synthesis (OMCOS), Novel Aromatic Compounds (ISNA), Carbohydrate Chemistry (ICS), the Chemistry of Natural Products ISCNP), and Photo- chemistry. Pure Appl. Chem. publishes collections of papers based upon authoritative lectures presented at such IUPAC endorsed events, in addition to IUPAC Recommendations, and Technical Reports. We are very pleased to highlight the following publications from these three Nobel Laureates that have been published in Pure and Applied Chemistry as a result of their involvement in these conferences.

  • Department of Chemistry
    Department of Chemistry In the 2005–2006 academic year, the Department of Chemistry continued its strong programs in undergraduate and graduate education. Currently there are 245 graduate students, 93 postdoctoral researchers, and 92 undergraduate chemistry majors. As of July 1, 2006, the Department faculty will comprise 32 full-time faculty members including 5 assistant, 4 associate, and 23 full professors, one an Institute Professor. In the fall, Professor Joseph P. Sadighi was promoted to associate professor without tenure, effective July 1, 2006; in the spring, Professor Timothy F. Jamison was promoted to associate professor with tenure, also effective July 1, 2006. In September 2005, Professor Arup K. Chakraborty took up a joint senior appointment as the Robert T. Haslam professor of chemical engineering, professor of chemistry, and professor of biological engineering. Professor Chakraborty obtained his PhD in chemical engineering at the University of Delaware. He came to MIT from the University of California at Berkeley, where he served as the Warren and Katherine Schlinger distinguished professor and chair of chemical engineering, and professor of chemistry from 2001 to 2005. Highlights The Department of Chemistry had a wonderful year. On October 2, 2005, we learned that Professor Richard R. Schrock, Frederick G. Keyes professor of chemistry, had won the 2005 Nobel Prize in chemistry for the development of a chemical reaction now used daily in the chemical industry for the efficient and more environmentally friendly production of important pharmaceuticals, fuels, synthetic fibers, and many other products. Schrock Professor Richard R. Schrock speaking at a press shared the prize with Yves Chauvin of the conference at MIT on October 5, 2005.
