The North West Biotech Initiative would like to invite you to our next webinar:

The Future of Chemistry, Tuesday 16th of March 18:00-19:00, virtual event

Chemistry has changed the world in many ways. The World Economic Forum named photochemistry, green hydrogen and whole-genome synthesis among the top 10 emerging technologies of 2020. Chemists can improve the environment and industrial practices to reach the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Circular fashion, chickenless eggs and molecular kitchen - chemistry will be at the core of consumer goods. Chemistry can shape the world. How will the world shape chemistry? Will chemistry solve the major challenges humanity is facing or will it dissolve as a distinct discipline?

Register for the event to hear from the leaders in chemistry policymaking, pharmaceuticals and nanotechnology about the future of chemical sciences, required skills and future careers. Use this link to learn about how chemistry will change tomorrow, to ask important questions and to prepare for the future!
