Extracts of an Article on the Brno 2005 School by Prof Leiv Sydnes (IUPAC President) in CHEMISTRY International Jan-Feb 2006 Vol 28 No. 1 are:
this special annual School emphasises interaction and cooperation between young scientists working in the field of chemistry and is designed to inspire more students to opt for a career in chemistry and chemistry research" :.. "A key goal is to foster networking and cooperation across Europe and with that in mind, extensive discussions are held at meetings based on the posters presented by the young participants. These discussions are led by an international group of scientists that scrutinize every poster and quiz each presenter extensively." :: "The format is unique and means that the meetings and participants receive a level of attention rarely seen at other similar events" : "Lectures are given by selected keynote speakers :. The 2005 IUPAC Lecture was given by Prof Gerald Pattenden who talked about "The Excitement of Natural Products and their Biomimetic Synthesis" with such vigour and enthusiasm that he appeared to be living proof of the title. Many participants felt inspired to carry on with chemistry after his talk"
