Chemistry Central at the ACS Fall Meeting

Chemistry Central will be at the ACS Fall Meeting in Denver, Colorado from 28th–31st August. Come visit us at booth 807 where we would be happy to discuss the latest developments at Chemistry Central, and answer any questions you have about open access publishing. You will also be able to enter our prize draw to win an HD camcorder.

On Sunday 28th, Yang Gan – Section Editor for the Physical Chemistry section of Chemistry Central Journal – will deliver a presentation as part of the ‘Reactive Properties of Environmental Interfaces’ session, covering surface charging properties of minerals by a site-specific AFM colloidal probe technique.

Several Editorial Board Members for Journal of Cheminformatics will also be presenting during the conference. On the Tuesday Antony Williams will discuss the role of crowdsourcing in chemistry, specifically with regards to the ChemSpider project, and on the Wednesday, Jonathan Goodman will look at how InChIs can be used to develop a description of chemical reactions.

Evan Bolton, author of the PubChem 3D thematic series will also be speaking on the Wednesday, covering large-scale data analysis of bioactivity information in PubChem using 2D and 3D chemical similarity. And the 'Honoring Marie Curie, Local Women Chemists Celebrate the International Year of Chemistry' session taking place on the Monday will also be relevant to anyone interested in Chemistry Central Journal's Women in Chemistry thematic series.
