Building Access to Tomorrow’s Medicines: bringing together humans, robots, and artificial intelligence - A Workshop

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.

GreenChemAfrica 2025

The African Green Chemistry School and Environmental Sustainability (GreenChmeAfrica) represents a pivotal initiative aimed at addressing critical environmental challenges and promoting sustainable chemical practices across the African continent. It aims to position Africa at the forefront of sustainable technological innovation, creating pathways for more resilient and environmentally conscious development strategies.

Greener Curriculum Showcase Series: Exploring Sustainable Practices and the Drive for Greener Innovations - A Case Study in Metal Plating

This free, virtual workshop is designed to help educators effectively adapt and implement a new case study that examines the various considerations and factors driving greener innovations in the metal plating industry. One of the primary chemicals used in this sector is PFAS, which acts as a fume suppressant to control chromic acid mist during the chrome plating process. While PFAS reduces exposure to the known health hazard of hexavalent chromium, its health and environmental impacts raise significant concerns, underscoring the need for greener alternatives.

Circular Economy: Policy Making for Traceability of Chemicals along Value Chains

In the EU Interreg project ECHT, actors along the textile value chain (H&M, LIST, Inditex, Puma, Team2, etc.) are convinced that the traceability of chemicals in their products is an essential prerequisite for meeting the objectives of the Sustainable Textiles Strategy. As part of the project, roadmaps for the implementation of chemicals traceability in the industry will be developed – complemented by a policy action plan.
