I noted that the following two symposia (one in CHED and one in CHAS) seem very similar and may want to combine if we have few papers (or even if we don’t):

 

               Division of Chemical Health and Safety: Connecting Lab Safety & Green Chemistry Education (Oral) (Oral), (Monday, October 29), [CCS] Ralph Stuart

               Division of Chemical Education: Green Chemistry as a Pillar of Safety Education (Oral) (Oral), (Monday, October 29), Haim Weizman, Jane Wissinger

 

 

 

Please consider submitting a paper or poster for the upcoming ACS National Meeting in Orlando.

 

Symposia proposed are as follows:

 

Chemical Health and Safety General Poster Session

Ask Doctor Safety about new materials, processes and products

Educating the Educators

Chemical safety in the hospitality and amusement park industry

Improving Academic Safety Culture: Undergraduate and Graduate Student Leadership in Laboratory Safety

Bridging the (Safety) Gap between Academia and Industry

A decade later: The death of Sheri Sangji as a catalyst for a change in safety culture

New Frontiers in Cannabis: analytical tools, post processing, and policy directions

Optimizing Cannabis Processing Dynamics Via Small Scale Experimentation and Analysis

Health & Safety concerns around Cannabis intoxication in the work place

Cannabis cultivation chemistry: innovating to optimize legitimacy, health and efficiency in a rapidly growing industry

Analysis and purification of cannabis extracts to ensure consumer safety

Connecting Lab Safety and Green Chemistry Education

 

The deadline for submissions is October 29.  If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

 

Thanks very much,

Debbie

can proceed violently in the presence of an idiot."
