Abstract

The historical background and the current activities of the Chemical Society of Geneva are described. Founded 88 years ago from the merger of three student associations, the Society today connects some 190 chemists and biochemists from all professional horizons. The Society's main goal is to promote molecular sciences studies and applications in Geneva. In addition to regularly organizing scientific lectures and visits, it sponsors major scientific seminars and grants annual awards to secondary school pupils and bachelor students.
