Find out what the land of ideas has to offer! At the Research in Germany booth (28A) you can get information and individual consultation on research opportunities such as summer schools, post-graduate and PhD courses, post-doc positions, scientific cooperation as well as fellowships and funding programs. The German Research Foundation (DFG), the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (AvH) will promote a Science Lunch to be held on Tuesday, July 11th, from 12:35 to 14:20 at Sala São Paulo. Five researchers from different German institutions will give an insight into the country’s research landscape and present their own research work. Following an introduction of the scientists and brief presentations of the participating funding organizations, attendees will have the chance to mingle in different groups, chat on a one-to-one basis and seek in-depth advice in a relaxed atmosphere. Please register: http://bit.ly/ScienceLunch The event is free of charge and includes food and beverages. We look forward to seeing you there! About us Research in Germany is an initiative launched by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research with the aim to inform students and researchers from all over the world about the German research landscape, its funding system and the collaboration opportunities with German scientists and research organizations. 2 Message from IUPAC - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry On behalf of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, it is my utmost pleasure to great all the delegates as well as the honorable guests of the 46th World Chemistry Congress 2017 and the 49th General Assembly. It is a pleasure to see that, in our 98th year, approaching our Centenary in 2019, our members and activities are focused on the future of chemistry. It gives me confidence for the future and that our Union will continue to be an indispensable resource to chemistry worldwide. IUPAC2017 will be first time the World Chemistry Congress and General Assembly is hosted in the South America. After a mem- orable WCC and GA in Busan, Korea, we are this year looking forward to gathering together in São Paulo, Brazil. The main theme of this congress is «Sustainability and Diversity through Chemistry». IUPAC’s core values reflect our focus on diversity and inclusiveness and our mission reflects our efforts to benefit humankind and the world. The congress program incor- porates many of the key components related to sustainability and the role of chemistry in achieving Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN. I would also like to congratulate the Brazilian Chemical Society-SBQ on their 40th Anniversary and encourage everyone to partic- ipate in the Commemorative Symposium and celebration on July 12th, 2017. The World Trade Center in Sao Paulo will be the place for the IUPAC 49th General Assembly and all the union’s associated meet- ings in the Divisions and Standing Committees. It is also the place where the 49th Council meeting will be held, hosting delegates from 44 countries. I am sure you will attend many scientific sessions during the WCC to learn about the state of chemical science and hear Nobel Prize winners and renowned scientists during the Plenary sessions. A number of special symposia and round-tables will be held including the Young Researchers Symposia and Panel discussions dedicated to the role of women in chemical science and tech- nology. As we gather together with familiar colleagues, the WCC is also an opportunity to network with new people, early career scientists and young observers. So I encourage you to visit the exhibition and attend the social events. I am looking forward to meet you all and I do hope that all of our Member Nations will be able to participate. Looking forward to seeing you in São Paulo, Brazil. Prof. Natalia Tarasova President, IUPAC 3 Message from SBQ - Sociedade Brasileira de Química Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the Brazilian Chemical Society (SBQ), we would like to welcome you to São Paulo for the 46th IUPAC World Chemistry Congress and 40th Annual Meeting of the Brazilian Chemical Society. The Brazilian Chemical Society was founded in 1977 and nowadays it is one of the largest and most representative scientific associations in Latin America. The SBQ Annual Meeting, which occurs every year since its founding, has been most traditional event in chemistry in Brazil and among the largest in Latin America. In 2017 we are very proud and enthusiastic to celebrate the 40th anniversary of our society, and as a gift for the Brazilian Chemistry community, we got the privilege to organize the most important global event in Chemistry, the IUPAC World Chemistry Congress, coming by the first time to Latin America, together with the traditional Annual Meeting of the SBQ. An important characteristic of the SBQ Meetings is the expressive participation of Brazilian young chemists. The opportunity to share experience with young talents from different cultures, as well as to meet seniors and well-stablished chemists from across the globe, is one of the many facets that makes this event so fascinating. The multi-cultural and cosmopolite city of São Paulo is the perfect scenario for it. We would like to acknowledge the organizing and scientific committees that bring us this exciting meeting with a high level scientific program. We sincerely hope that you enjoy the meeting and find in it a forum for true and rich scientific exchange and inspiration for your future work. Aldo J.G. Zarbin Rossimirian P.
