The SciFinder Future Leaders program will be held August 15-20 in Columbus, OH and provides selected international Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers opportunities to collaborate with CAS scientists, innovators and business leaders to:

  • Expand their professional network and build connections as they engage with scientists from all over the world;

  • Gain perspective through touring centers of innovation and technology to broaden their understanding of the scientific enterprise.

At the conclusion of the program in Columbus, participants will travel to Philadelphia to attend the 252nd ACS National Meeting & Exposition, which provides a platform to present, publish, discuss and exhibit the most exciting research discoveries and technologies in chemistry and its related disciplines. This year's participants will also have the unique opportunity to attend the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions' World Library and Information Congress, a biennial gathering of international library and information professionals, also being held in Columbus this August.

"CAS teams from around the organization are fortunate to engage and learn from the many talented researchers and alumni who have shared their insights over the years as part of this program, helping to drive our innovation efforts to better serve the next generations of scientists. This year's class of 2016 SciFinder Future Leaders brings diversity and scientific expertise that will elevate our ongoing efforts to better serve the greater scientific community long term."
