Established in 1968 in Albuquerque, USA, the International Society of Heterocyclic Chemistry (ISHC) has long been dedicated to advancing excellence in heterocyclic science worldwide. Through its prestigious biennial congress, international awards, fellowship recognition, and the annual publication Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry, the Society fosters innovation, celebrates achievement, and connects a global community of researchers.
From July 19鈥�24, 2026, ISHC will host its renowned congress in Latin America for the first time, at USP S茫o Carlos, Brazil. This milestone event will unite leading scientists and emerging researchers to explore breakthrough developments in heterocyclic chemistry and its impact on modern synthetic and medicinal chemistry. The scientific program will spotlight cutting-edge advances in catalysis, radical and photochemical strategies, sustainable synthesis, stereoselective methodologies, and molecular design, highlighting new tools that drive efficiency, selectivity, and environmental responsibility.
The congress will also emphasize the dynamic interface between chemistry and biology, showcasing innovation in imaging, photodynamic therapy, and drug discovery. Alongside world-class presentations, participants will benefit from invaluable networking opportunities, social events and a highly collaborative atmosphere.
Set in Brazil鈥檚 鈥淐apital of Technology,鈥� the vibrant university city of S茫o Carlos offers an inspiring and welcoming backdrop. Join us for this historic gathering celebrating creativity, scientific excellence, and the future of heterocyclic chemistry.
