2020 ACS Fall National Meeting and Exposition

Deadline for Abstracts Has Been Extended to April 20

CLICK HERE TO SUBMIT YOUR ABSTRACT Concerns regarding COVID-19 have led many to question the status of the ACS Fall National Meeting. At this point, ACS is still planning to proceed with the Fall ACS National Meeting in San Francisco.

ACS is working on both strategies and contingency plans to ensure that the meeting can be held safely in August.
Abstracts may be withdrawn at a later point should a presenter need to cancel, but once the submission deadline is closed, it will not be possible to add late submissions.

This meeting will also be a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of AGRO division. See the 50th Anniversary webpage for more information.
