2011 is the year for
"Chemistry—our life, our future"
This year we look at how we are an integral part of nature; our fate is tightly linked with chemistry, and its contributions to the well-being of humankind, all over the world.
Whether in the shopping centre, pharmacy or at home, modern life would not be possible without chemistry. Nevertheless we “take these things for granted and behave as though they had always existed" (József Pálinkás; P.Schuld).
