IYCN is on the front cover of NUCLEUS

The most recent issue of NUCLEUS (the monthly newsletter of the Northeastern Section of the American Chemical Society) has just been published. It includes an article where it explains how our organization was launched, what ties us together and where our members come from. The work also explores some of our future projects, for example, the publication of experiments that do not require specialized equipments together with the translation into different languages.
