28 January 2019 – Tomorrow, we will be officially opening 2019 as the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements. On this 150th anniversary of Mendeleev’s creation, we celebrate the global impact this table has had on science and our daily lives. We will have an exhibition hall showcasing the many diverse functions of the periodic table, as well as many high profile speakers discussing its history and future in society.
If you are unable to join us in person, you can watch the Opening Ceremony from our live stream! iupac.org/iypt2019/opening-cerem…
