[Lives in Chemistry @livesinchem]

📅Lutz Ackermann @aztul, Peter Gölitz, Dieter Kaufmann, and Oliver Reiser @chemieimalltag have organized an Armin de Meijere Memorial Symposium, “From Small Rings to Large Compounds” (program: https://t.co/lvRM6Z6AQ4), which will take place on May 22, 2026, at the University of Göttingen @uniGoettingen. Attendance is free for all, registration required (see program).
Armin de Meijere (https://t.co/p9RgMTUSzQ) was not only a highly respected, internationally renowned organic chemist, he was also a great supporter of the autobiography series “Lives in Chemistry” (https://t.co/DBaasuTW4p). Ryoji Noyori, for example, thanked him explicitly in his autobiography for a “careful reading of the manuscript” (https://t.co/4Zk8ctu8U8).
