The 10th Macrocylic Arene Supramolecular Chemistry Symposium
Following the three-year span of the COVID-2019 pandemic, the 10th MASCS was reopened and successfully held in Fuzhou from May 12 to 14, 2023. Professor Meijin Lin from Fuzhou University organized the symposium, with co-hosting support from the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter, Chinese Academy of Sciences (FJIRSM) and Sanming University. Compared to its predecessors, the 10th symposium experienced a notable surge in participation, attracting a total of 266 attendees including 146 researchers and 120 graduate students from 23 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities across China. This substantial increase in attendance well reflects the growing influence of macrocyclic arene supramolecular chemistry in China, with more researchers engaging in this vibrant research field.
