Congratulations to Yaming for being selected to give an oral presentation at the ACS “Excellence in Graduate Polymer Research Symposium”! This symposium will take place at the San Francisco ACS meeting in April 2017.

The “Excellence in Graduate Polymer Research Symposium” is sponsored by the ACS Polymer Division (POLY) and is co-sponsored by ACS Presidential Events (PRES), the ACS Younger Chemists Committee (YCC), the ACS Society Committee on Education (SOCED), and the ACS Professional Relations Division (PROF).

From the ACS Website: “The purposes of this symposium are to provide recognition to outstanding graduate students in polymer science and engineering, to foster networking and exposure, and to help develop the careers of future leaders in our field. In our discussions with graduate students, they have indicated high levels of interest in scientific presentation, career development, and networking, both among members of POLY and with their peers. They wish to become more involved and integrated into the Division and the community of Polymer Chemistry as a whole. Our hope is that this symposium represents a step in this direction.”
