The 2025 conference theme is "Connecting Chemistry to the Real World!" This conference will explore the real world applications of chemistry, with a particular emphasis on how chemistry concepts can be taught with assistance of artificial intelligence, and experiments that connect real world applications, including nutrition and sustainability.
This year's keynote speaker will be Dr. Kimberly Arcand who will be presenting on "Chemistry and the Cosmos". Dr. Arcand is a visualization scientist with a background in molecular biology who now leads innovation in data visualization, 3D imaging, and extended reality for NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. Her work bridges the physical sciences—from atoms to galaxies—using cutting-edge techniques like sonification and machine learning to make complex data more accessible and engaging.
