Given the strong slate of candidates in 2021 with many people in their final year of eligibility we opted to have 3 sessions, postponing the event to the Spring 2022 ACS National Meeting in San Diego due to uncertainty around the COVID pandemic.
The Organic Division organizes the Young Investigator’s Symposium to highlight up-and-coming scientists from a range of backgrounds, organizations and industries.
