Advancing Student Research in Chemistry
NSCRC & NSYCC
The 28th annual Northeast Student Chemistry Research Conference, organized by the Northeastern Section Younger Chemists Committee (NSYCC) of the American Chemical Society.
NSCRC — A Conference Built for Learning
NSCRC is a student-centered learning conference, organized by students for students. It exists to give undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral researchers a low-stakes, genuinely supportive environment to practice presenting their work and to grow from doing it.
Founded April 24, 1999 at MIT, NSCRC enters its 28th year in 2027. The emphasis is on constructive feedback, scientific dialogue, and building confidence as a communicator, not on performance or competition.
About NSYCC
The Northeastern Section Younger Chemists Committee (NSYCC) is the younger chemist arm of the Northeastern Section of the American Chemical Society (NESACS). Our mission is to advocate and facilitate the professional development of young chemists in the Greater Boston Area — cultivating future leaders in chemistry through community, professional development, and scientific exchange.
NSYCC is a community of predominantly graduate students, undergraduate students, and young professionals from the Greater Boston Area who are under 40 years old. We fulfill a needed space for young chemists to connect outside the lab and workplace.
