COCI Corner

The IUPAC Committee on Chemistry and Industry (COCI) is the focus within IUPAC for issues of importance to the global chemical industry. COCI is developing new programs and projects on emerging topics. It is also the conduit for communications between IUPAC and National Adhering Organizations (NAOs), Company Associates (CAs), and individual scientists. This issue of Chemistry International (July-Aug 2006) introduces a new feature called the “COCI Corner,” where COCI will present the committee’s work on topics of urgency to IUPAC and the chemical industry. In this installment, Mark Cesa (USA), chairman, introduces COCI programs.
