85th International Conference on Chemistry



The International Chemistry Conference (IC2) marks the climax of the celebration of the 85th year of the Kapisanang Kimika ng Pilipinas (Chemical Society of the Philippines). Focusing on the theme “Chemistry Innovations for World Needs”, it highlights the various developments in chemistry as a response to global needs.


IC2 aims to serve as a platform for the sharing and exchange of knowledge and experience in the various fields of application of chemistry. It offers an opportunity for the professional development of scientists with interest in chemical science. It provides a venue for the academic and social interaction of the participants, leading to a dynamic and lively community of chemists and other scientists.


IC2 will be held on 15 – 17 (W-F) February 2023 at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila. The conference will be held in-person with the required health precautions.

Congratulations, Dr. Lebrilla!



2022 Molecular and Cellular Proteomics (MCP) / American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) Lectureship Awardee



CONGRATULATIONS, DR. CARLITO B. LEBRILLA for being conferred with the 2022 Molecular and Cellular Proteomics (MCP) / American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) Lectureship Award!


The MCP/ASBMB award, which was established in 2013, recognizes and honors scientists who have been at the forefront of the rapidly developing field of glycomics and glycoproteomics.


Dr. Lebrilla is known for his pioneering work in using mass spectrometry to study technically challenging questions related to human health. His laboratory has focused on developing and applying glycomic approaches to identify and validate early disease biomarkers, particularly in ovarian, breast, and prostate cancer. They have also been leaders in characterizing the components of human milk, including oligosaccharides, with the goal of identifying bioactive molecules and creating improved nutrient supplements.


For his longstanding commitment to studying glycoconjugates through innovative mass spectrometry techniques, Dr. Carlito Lebrilla has been selected by the editorial leadership of the MCP to receive the 2022 Lectureship Award.



Congratulations, Dr. Advincula!



Invited to the UK Royal Society of Chemistry



CONGRATULATIONS, DR. RIGOBERTO ADVINCULA for being invited to join as a Fellow of the U.K. Royal Society of Chemistry through its Leaders in the Field scheme!


‘Leaders in the Field’ is a scheme where the Royal Society of Chemistry identifies outstanding individuals in the chemical science community to be invited to become Fellows.


In Dr. Advincula's case, it is his significant contributions to the chemical sciences, and in particular his contributions to polymer chemistry, that has prompted his nomination.





Congratulations, Dr. Purugganan!



Recipient of the International Scientific Prize for Date Palm Studies



CONGRATULATIONS, DR. MICHAEL PURRUGANAN for being conferred with the International Scientific Prize for Date Palm Studies during the International Date Palm Conference held in Riyahd, Saudi Arabia.


Dr. Purruganan has made significant strides in the study of genomic diversity of date palms (Phoenix dactylifera) and its wild relatives to understand its domestication and evolution, and to identify genes that may help in breeding and trait improvement.
