The CHEMRAWN VII Future Actions Committee and the IUPAC Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry Division have established the Prize for Atmospheric and Green Chemistry, to be awarded biennially at the IUPAC Conference on Green Chemistry. Pietro Tundo, president of the Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry Division, announced the new prize at the IUPAC Council Meeting, 6 August 2009, in Glasgow, Scotland.
Beginning in 2010, the prize of USD 5 000 will be granted to a young investigator (less than 45) from a developing country. The first award will be given at the third IUPAC International Conference on Green Chemistry, 15-19 August 2010 in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Nominations for the first prize are due 31 December 2009. Each nomination should include a CV and two letters of support, plus a brief summary of research, illustrating the contribution of the applicant to the field of green chemistry, and emphasizing atmospheric chemistry. Applications should be sent to the IUPAC Secretariat or to P.O. Box 13757, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709-3757 USA.
The Selection Committee is composed of the president of the Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry Division, who serves as chair; the chair of the Subcommittee on Green Chemistry; and the chair of CHEMRAWN.
