CLEAR2026 Symposium

Dear CER colleagues, 

The CLEAR Symposium is just around the corner and we’re excited to see all of the amazing posters and talks that will be presented. 

What is CLEAR?  CLEAR is a global virtual symposium connecting chemistry educators worldwide with the mission of improving the chemistry teaching laboratory for future generations through research. This symposium is also endorsed by the Canadian Chemistry Education Division, the American Chemical Society’s Chemistry Education division, and other chemistry education divisions in Germany, UK, the larger Europe, and Australia. 

This year’s symposium will focus on Sustainability and Green Chemistry and take place on Thursday, May 7th, 2026.

You can submit a poster on your research related to labs at  

https://clearsymposium.weebly.com/registersubmissions.html

If you don’t have any research to present, you can also just register to attend this free symposium! 

The deadline for submissions and registration is March 28th. If you have any questions, please email clearsymposium@gmail.com.   

This is a great opportunity to showcase your latest research, assessment, or evaluation in the chemistry laboratory and connect with peers. Posters will be presented electronically in the hour before the conference and/or the hour after, depending on the presenter’s preference based on timezone. 

We’re looking forward to receiving your poster proposals and seeing you at the CLEAR Symposium. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Doctoral Student, CERN

The Education research team at CERN is looking for a Doctoral Student who will advance research on typographic representations by iteratively developing them in different contexts, investigating how teachers engage with, adapt, and implement such representations in their instructional practice, or empirically validating them with high-school students. This Doctoral Student will be part of the Teacher Programmes team and will be actively involved in the management and delivery of CERN’s national and international teacher programmes (teachers.cern).
