Proud to be a Chemist: About You

The American Chemical Society (ACS) is actively committed to cultivating a diverse, equitable, inclusive, and respectful community of chemistry professionals. We encourage inclusivity and oppose discrimination in scientific learning and practice based on—but not limited to—race, religion, country or ethnic origin, country of residence, citizenship, language, political opinion, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, age, economic status and educational attainment.

We're proud of all our chemists and we know you're #ProudtobeaChemist too! Please complete the following interview questions which may be used on ACS.org and social media to highlight you and your work. We are asking for demographic information to ensure the chemists we highlight represent the various dimensions of our diverse community.

Submission does not guarantee you will be highlighed directly. If you are not selected for a weekly highlight in 2022, please share about yourself on social media using the hashtag above.
