ISACS19: Challenges in Organic Chemistry

20 - 23 March 2016, Irvine, United States


Introduction
Following the success of ISACS1 in San Francisco (2010) and ISACS7 in Edinburgh (2012) and ISACS14 in Shanghai (2014), ISACS19 brought together world leading experts in the field of organic chemistry and synthesis. 

The conference took place at the University of California, Irvine, USA.

The Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center

As a scientist and a businessman, Dr. Beckman envisioned a West Coast center where experts could discuss matters of science and technology, comparable to the headquarters of the NAS and the NAE in Washington, DC. A grant from the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Foundation, and The Irvine Company's donation of seven acres on the crest of a hill adjacent to the campus of the University of California, Irvine made this vision a reality. Designed by the renowned architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, the the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering opened its doors in April, 1988, and the Beckman Center continues to be operated by the academies as their West Coast location for both program activity and conferences.
The Beckman Center is conveniently located at 100 Academy, Irvine, CA, near the University Drive exit from CA-73. Adjacent to the University of California, Irvine, and less than three miles from the John Wayne Orange County Airport, the Beckman Center is easily reached from several local freeways.
Please see the ‘Beckman Center Map and Directions’ link for further directions by road.
