At the opening ceremony, Dr. Amin Majdalaweih, Associate Professor of Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences, thanked the conference attendees for their participation. AUS Chancellor Björn Kjerfve welcomed the attendees and briefed them about the background of AUS as a leading higher education institution in the region.

We are confident that many more conferences will follow to provide an international platform for the exchange of scientific ideas that are vital for everyday human life," said Dr. Imad Abu-Yousef, Professor of Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences.

The basic themes of the conference include analytical chemistry, biochemistry, catalysis, computational chemistry, inorganic chemistry, instrumentation, material and surface sciences, medicinal chemistry, nanotechnology, electrochemistry, organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, physical chemistry, environmental chemistry, forensic applications, and green and sustainable energy.

The conference will continue through March 2, 2016.
