Inorganic Chemistry Network

The aims of the IC Network are
- Organizing meetings, seminars, workshops and lectures.
- Providing networking platforms for inorganic chemists and organometallic chemists to exchange ideas and expert knowledge between academia and industry.
- Disseminating community information and promoting activities of partner organizations.
- Representing the community’s interests in national and international organizations.
Main activities
- Organize the SCS Fall Meeting Inorganic & Coordination Chemistry Session.
- Coordinates the SCS Lectureship tours of invited speakers in the field.
- Inform the community via Social Media channels and this website.
- Take the guest editor role for CHIMIA thematic issues on a regular basis.
- Represent the Swiss Chemial Society in the EuChemS Division of Inorganic Chemistry and the EuChemS Division of Organometallic Chemistry.
