The European Young Chemists’ Network. EYCN is the younger members division of the European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences (EuCheMS). Every chemist under 35 within the EuCheMS framework is part of EYCN.

EYCN was founded in 2006. The idea of the European Young Chemists Network (EYCN) within EuCheMS appeared during several young scientist meetings inner Europe in the past. At the brink of the 1st European Chemistry Congress 2006 in Budapest in (Hungary) a paper was written about "Aims, Tasks and Goals of EYCN". In March 2007 Jens Breffke (Germany) and Csaba Janaky (Hungary) invited all societies to send their young representatives to Berlin in order to set the rules of EYCN. Only three weeks later the Excecutive Committee of EuCheMS confirmed these Rules. EYCN was now the official youth division of EuCheMS.

The Network brings together young chemists within the EuCheMS framework.

What is EYCN?

Our aims...

  1. BulletPromote the exchange of information among chemists in European industry, academia, professional institutions and European government bodies.

  2. BulletOpen a communication gate for all areas of chemistry within Europe and also to the rest of the world.

  3. BulletForm an organized and united opinion to represent the European voice in science and education.

  4. BulletProvide the platforms to generate and expand new ideas that contribute to the future role of chemistry and molecular sciences in the European society.

  5. BulletBridge the gap between academics and industry by organizing shared activities, promoting discussion and handover of experience at an informal level.

  6. BulletPresent chemistry as part of daily life. We strongly believe in the need to show a renovated attitude towards chemistry. We aim for new generations to understand science as something reachable and manageable
