Something that I have been waiting (and secretly working on) for a long time seems to become a reality thanks to the great work of Amelia Anderson, Lian Rajewski and Jo Krise.
I was introduced to the fantastic initiative a few days ago by Amelia Anderson and Lian Rajewski, which I fully support and believe to be a fantastic idea.
Cyclodextrin research and industrial applications are advancing rapidly in the United States—ranging from pharmaceuticals and biomaterials to food and environmental technologies. Yet, despite this momentum, there is currently no U.S.-based scientific conference dedicated exclusively to cyclodextrins.
So what is NACC?
Vibrant and engaging cyclodextrin research groups already exist in Europe and Asia, with events like the European Cyclodextrin Conference (EuroCD), the Asian Cyclodextrin Conference (ACC), and the International Cyclodextrin Symposium (ICS). Recognizing that cyclodextrin research is also active across North America, we aim to create a collaborative platform for researchers to connect beyond Europe and Asia. We warmly invite and encourage the international community to participate in NACC, with a special focus on supporting North American researchers, laboratories, and companies.
