This is 16th in the series of Symposium, the first one was held in 2006, as a part of Birth day celebration of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray, founder President of the Indian Chemical Society. The Indian Chemical Society, one of the oldest learned bodies of our national pride was established on May 09, 1924. Acharya P. C. Ray, after returning from Edinburgh first joined the Presidency College, Kolkata in 1889 and later in 1916, joined the Department of Chemistry, newly formed University College of Science, University of Calcutta as the Palit Professor of Chemistry. Acharya Ray was intimately associated with the Indian Chemical Society till the last breath. The school of modern chemical research established by Acharya Ray in the University College of Science, where he used to live in the later part of his life, subsequently spread over the entire country through his many illustrious disciples. Acharya Ray had always strongly advocated for effective interactions between industries and academia. He himself was the founder of Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray was born on August 02, 1861.
