Constitution of the European Committee on Chemical Bonding (ECCB)", 2017

Initiative

Following the inspiring efforts taken in Rouen with the organization of the European Symposium on Chemical Bonding and the discussion among the scientific committee that followed, it has become evident that the Chemical Bonding community needs to get organized for collaboration and funding issues. Following the example of other communities at the national and international level, the following guidelines seem necessary:

  • Establishing a main 2-year span conference on Chemical Bonding
  • Constituting a Chemical Bond Committee
  • Calling for a Chemical Bond award among young scientists

All these procedure guidelines should foster the cohesion and visibility of the community. Both characteristics are necessary for being able to respond to today’s financial needs.

Spirit

The committee should be dynamical and represent the whole bonding community. In order to achieve so:

  • the committee members should not be permanent.
  • they should represent all approaches
  • they should represent the different countries at the European level in which these approaches are developed

Constituting committee

In order to create the 1st ECCB a constituting committee has been formed from the previous European Symposia on Chemical Bonding ([ESCB1] and [ESCB2])

The role of this committee is to ease the creation of a representative first ESCB.

Difussion list

A diffusion list on chemical bonding is being created to enable an easy and fully-covering difussion of the ECCB initiatives. The link to suscribe will be available here soon

This should also enable an easy difussion of PhD/postdoctoral grants

Other initiatives

In order to keep a dynamic and active committee, suggestions for new actions from the floor for new initiatives will be wellcome (e.g. forum, schools, online activities). The implementation will be discussed upon constitution of the 1st ECCB.
