Welcome

Since 2008, Portuguese Young Chemists Meeting has traveled through Portugal from north to south, with the objective not only of disseminating chemistry in its broadest aspects but also of making known a little of the culture of the Portuguese cities that host it.

The pandemic times experienced did not allow the normal course of the previous event, but in 2023 and with the hope of overcoming all these constraints, it will be Vila Real's turn to open its doors to 8PYCheM.

Taking on the role of hosts and on behalf of the Portuguese Young Chemists group from the Portuguese Society of Chemistry, we kindly welcome everyone who wants to join us to the 8th Portuguese Young Chemists Meeting that will take place in Vila Real, a city nicknamed by many as the “wonderful kingdom”, from May 17th to the 19th 2023.

This biennial conference allows the gathering of young chemists and researchers from the most diverse nationalities and subfields of Chemistry so that they can share their work and scientific interests, attend lectures by recognized experts and expand their international research network. In this congress, the Portuguese Young Chemists Award (PYCA) is also awarded to a young (<35 years old) Portuguese or foreigner, recently doctorate, for the work carried out during his/her Ph.D.
