Abstract

Early-career scientists need opportunities to present their research and to network. Although within the supramolecular chemistry community, local conferences that provide such opportunities have arisen over the last few decades, a suitable conference in North America had not been organised. To counter this situation, in 2022, we (Nathalie Busschaert (Tulane) and Clifton J Stephenson (Loyola University of New Orleans)) organised the first North American Supramolecular Chemistry (NASC) meeting to bring together supramolecular chemists from across the continent and to provide career-building opportunities for PhD students and postdocs. For this Conference Proceeding, we asked some of the invited speakers, as well as the winners of the best talk prizes, to provide their opinion of the meeting and their vision on the future of supramolecular chemistry in North America.
