Chemical societies across North and South America, Europe, and Africa invite chemistry professionals to the 3rd Atlantic Basin Conference on Chemistry (ABCChem). This event offers an opportunity for top scientists from around the Atlantic Basin to share ideas and collaborate on current multi-disciplinary chemistry topics. ABCChem 2026’s theme is Chemistry for Global Impact: Strategic Partnerships for Sustainable Innovation.
No matter your preference, you can experience ACS Fall 2025 programming, special lectures, and opportunities to connect with top leaders in the chemistry community—whether you attend ACS Fall 2025 in Washington, D.C. or online.
Check out what’s included with each registration option and decide what works best for you:
Monday, August 18, 2025 – Thursday, August 21, 2025
Prof. Zheng will present his breakthrough work on porphysomes—multifunctional lipid nanoparticles enabling imaging, therapy, and drug delivery, now entering first-in-human trials.
Key Topics:
1. How porphyrin-lipid nanoparticles (porphysomes) are transforming the LNP field
2. Their dual role in targeted delivery and multimodal imaging (MRI, PET, SPECT)
3. The clinical progress of LNP-based platforms in cancer therapy
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will host a workshop exploring the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in chemical sciences and drug discovery. Sponsored by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable, this event will bring together researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders to examine how AI tools can address data biases and democratize pharmaceutical research, potentially reducing drug development costs down from billions of dollars and decades of work.
The generation of organic wastes, such as sludge from wastewater treatment plants and food waste, is an inevitable byproduct of human activity. In line with the Federal Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 and the principles of Green Chemistry, waste that cannot be prevented or recycled must be managed in an environmentally sustainable manner. Conventional waste management methods, including incineration and landfilling, pose significant environmental risks, such as greenhouse gas emissions and soil and groundwater contamination.
Miraterra is a cutting-edge technology platform in soil measurement and precision fertilization. Developed by the company Terramera, this innovative platform integrates remote sensing with proximal sensing and advanced modeling techniques to offer a comprehensive approach to soil management. By combining these technologies, Miraterra reduces the cost and complexity of soil testing while increasing accuracy and minimizing uncertainty. The platform features the Digitizer, a state-of-the-art tool that enables precise and cost-effective soil analysis.
Designs high-performance materials and ingredients that are fully renewable and bio-based. WING® platform enables biology and design labs to develop, test, and commercialize products to reduce global dependence on fossil fuels and other unsustainable oil sources. Checkerspot, the developer of the WING® platform, offers products that integrate molecular foundry, chemistry, material science, and fabrication technology to develop polyurethanes and textile finish materials derived by fermentation of biobased oils, enabling industries to access materials at a molecular level.
