SUMMARY:ACS GCI Green & Sustainable Chemistry Summer School
DESCRIPTION:The ACS Green and Sustainable Chemistry Summer School (GSCSS) is a highly selective week-long program for graduate students and postdoctoral chemists and engineers. Each year\, approximately 60 exceptional students from North\, Central\, and South America and the Caribbean are selected from a large pool of applicants and gather for this fully funded once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The American Chemical Society pays for all eligible travel and program costs. \nOrganized and hosted by the Green Chemistry Institute since 2003\, the summer school typically features more than a dozen expert instructors who share knowledge and skills from across a broad spectrum of topics directly relevant to green chemistry and sustainability. Throughout the program\, students attend lectures and interactive study/project sessions\, present posters about their own research\, hold discussions\, and spend time networking both with each other and the GSCSS faculty. Alumni of this program have gone on to become leaders in many green chemistry and sustainability-related fields and provide participants with an extensive network of professional contacts.

SUMMARY:Ask Me Anything: Dr. Elizabeth Braun
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendar for the upcoming Ask Me Anything (AMA) interview with Dr. Elizabeth Braun\, Director of Educational Content and Learning at the Lab Safety Institute. From January 27th to 30th\, Elizabeth will answer questions from the community and share her expertise in the Green Chemistry Teaching and Learning Community (GCTLC) forums! \nAt the Lab Safety Institute\, Elizabeth collaborates with educators\, administrators\, and district leaders to strengthen safety culture and promote green chemistry across STEM classrooms. She focuses on systems-level improvement—supporting schools as they rethink chemical management\, instructional practices\, and professional learning to align safety and sustainability. Her work bridges policy\, pedagogy\, and practice to make safer science accessible to every learning environment.\n\n💬 This is a conversation you won’t want to miss! Get your questions ready and meet us in the forums.  \nPS: If you missed previous AMA interviews or want to revisit the insights shared\, you can explore them here.
