History of chemistry group

About us

The thematic group on the History of chemistry aims to bring together scientists, students, and business representatives interested in this field. The main goal of the group is to publicize the evolution of Lithuanian chemistry ideas and the memory of personalities, organize and participate in conferences and events. The group initiated the organization of the International Conference on the History of Chemistry (13ICHC) in Vilnius, 2023. The book of abstracts of the conference is the first publication of the Lithuanian Chemical Society.

Members of the group – Birutė Railienė and Rimantas Vaitkus represent the Lithuanian Chemical Society in the EuChemS on the Working Party on History of Chemistry.
