The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is pleased to announce the call for nominations for the IUPAC 2023 Distinguished Women in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering Awards. The purpose of the awards program, initiated as part of the 2011 International Year of Chemistry celebrations, is to acknowledge and promote the work of women in chemistry/chemical engineering worldwide.

Professor Hugh D. Burrows, Scientific Editor of Pure and Applied Chemistry, is stepping down at the end of 2022 after serving as Scientific Editor since 2014. IUPAC requests nominations and/or applications to succeed Professor Burrows in this position.
