ORGN and RMC Form a Partnership

In August 2009, the Executive Committee of the ACS Division of Organic Chemistry (DOC) and the Governing Board of the Reaction Mechanisms Conference (RMC) entered into a formal partnership. This partnership includes an agreement for continuing financial support from DOC for the RMC, which is held every two years, in years alternate to the National Organic Symposium (NOS). Through solidifying this relationship with the RMC, DOC will benefit by extending support for a broad spectrum of contemporary organic chemistry for its members. In return for its support, DOC will gain the opportunity for oversight and direct input into the RMC programming via representation on the Governing Board.
