In-person congress was canceled and switched to a virtual congress.
The first IFSCC Virtual Congress 2020 Yokohama will take place during October 21-30, 2020. It will feature an online distinguished lecture given by the Nobel Prize Winner Yoshinori Ohsumi, Ph.D., more than 70 oral and over 500 poster presentations, available on-demand so that you can view them anytime you wish.
Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the decision was made to cancel in-person congress in Yokohama, Japan and hold a virtual congress. This has been an exceptionally difficult decision, but the safety and health of our community are more important. The Society of Cosmetic Chemists of Japan (SCCJ), the host of the Congress of 2020, is an academic society with a membership of over 1,600 chemists and a history of over 70 years. They have had the pleasure to host the IFSCC Congress three times.
