By bringing together researchers from both sides of the Alps, the 12th JFIC will not only celebrate the enduring Franco-Italian collaboration in chemistry but also provide an exceptional opportunity to build new partnerships, inspire innovation, and strengthen the bonds between established scientists and emerging talents.

Special emphasis will be placed on supporting young scientists: poster sessions and oral contributions will highlight their work, and 3 presentations will celebrate the 2026 Thesis Prizes, awarded by the South-PACA section of the SCF and the regional sections of Piemonte–Valle d’Aosta and Liguria of the SCI.
