4th Annual Edward Brush Green Chemistry Awards Symposium

Celebrating students and instructors who are doing impactful, innovative work in green chemistry or green engineering has been a tradition at the ACS Green Chemistry Institute (GCI) for more than two decades. This annual symposium was established at the 2023 Green Chemistry & Engineering Conference to feature presentations contributed by both instructor and student awardees. In 2025, the awards symposium was renamed for Green Chemistry education pioneer Dr. Edward Brush to honor his significant career contributions to both curricular innovation and investing in student success. This symposium will shine a spotlight on students who have shown exceptional promise in their studies and/or research focused on one or more aspects of green chemistry and engineering. It will also feature instructors who have made significant contributions toward reimagining chemistry education through the lens of green chemistry with the goal of equipping students for careers in which they can work toward a more sustainable future for the global chemistry enterprise. Many of the awardees will be presenting in other symposia across the conference, but a selected sub-set of invited winners (instructors and students) will present in this dedicated symposium.
