SUMMARY:Achieving Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs): Reaching Compliance with Confidence for the Pharmaceutical Lab
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Webinars and ACS Office of Career and Professional Education\nMay 28\, 11:00 am-Noon\, Online\, Free\, Registration required\n\nIf Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines feel more like a maze of regulations than a roadmap to action\, you’re not alone. Many professionals struggle to translate GMP requirements into clear\, actionable steps that ensure compliance\, product quality\, and patient safety. \nJoin Kim Huynh Ba of Pharmalytik as she translates complex regulatory expectations into practical\, real world applications tailored to your role in the pharmaceutical industry. This webinar goes beyond theory\, delivering insights you can immediately apply\, from the production floor to quality decision making. Through real examples\, case studies\, and expert guidance\, you’ll gain not just an understanding of GMPs\, but the confidence to implement them effectively in your day to day work for your pharmaceutical laboratory. \nThis ACS Webinar is moderated by Bryan Tweedy of the American Chemical Society and co-produced with the ACS Office of Career and Professional Education. As part of ACS’s 150th anniversary celebration\, this month highlights the power of partnership\, from lab benches to policy tables\, and how trust\, teamwork\, and shared vision continue to drive chemistry forward. Celebrate with us at www.acs.org/150. \n\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\nThe evolution of GMP regulations and their impact on today’s industry\nCore principles of quality systems and data integrity\nThe roles\, responsibilities\, and behaviors that build a culture of GMP excellence\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\nThursday\, May 28\, 2026 @ 2-3pm ET\nFree to attend\nSlides will be available on day of the webinar\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Resources\n\nGood Manufacturing Practice (GMP) for the Pharmaceutical Professional – Register for this online ACS Institute multi-week course to discover how they safeguard product quality\, patient safety\, and regulatory compliance in every step of pharmaceutical development.\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-Produced With\n\n\n\n\nACS Office of Career and Professional Education

SUMMARY:Make Your Science Stick: Why Facts Matter but Stories Move
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Webinars and BrandLab\nJune 10\, 11:00am-Noon\, Online\, Free\, Registration required\n\n\n\nStories are one of the most powerful tools we have to communicate science. Narratives do what facts and figures can’t do alone: stick in our minds\, compel action\, and inspire change. \nJoin Jordan Nutting and Sarah Ashley Jolly of BrandLab as they explore why storytelling in science is such an effective communication strategy and what makes narrative more compelling than presenting data and figures alone. You’ll learn how to craft stories that can be used in presentations\, articles\, lectures\, and other formats that make complex data and technical ideas clear\, actionable\, and memorable\, no matter the audience. Register now to learn why it matters in science and how to use it to make your message stick. \nThis ACS Webinar is moderated by Heather Lockhart-Neff of the American Chemical Society and is co-produced with BrandLab of the American Chemical Society. \n\n\n\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\nHow to uncover the story that’s already part of your science\nWhy stories can be more compelling than facts alone\nWhat makes a good story and how to incorporate those elements into your science communication\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\nWednesday\, June 10\, 2026 @ 2-3pm ET\nFree to attend\nSlides will be available on day of the webinar\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-Produced With\n\n\n\n\nBrandLab

SUMMARY:Building an Integrated Safety Approach in Your Chemistry Department
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Webinars\nJune 11\, 11:00 am-Noon\, Online\, Free\, Registration required\n\nSafety in the lab shouldn’t be a one-day lecture or a checklist\, it should be how students think and work as scientists. \nJoin Daniel Jacques of SUNY Brockport for a practical\, classroom-tested approach to embedding safety across the undergraduate chemistry experience. This webinar repositions safety as an active learning process\, not a standalone requirement. Using the free Laboratory Safety for Chemistry Students (LSCS) e-Textbook\, you’ll see how students can learn to recognize hazards\, assess risk\, and make informed decisions in real time. Grounded in authentic academic lab settings\, this webinar goes beyond theory to offer strategies you can implement immediately. Discover how to create alignment across courses\, student roles\, and time so that safety is reinforced consistently. Following this discussion\, you will understand how a safety mindset becomes intrinsic to student practice of chemistry when exposure to safety is reinforced rather than fragmented. \nThis ACS Webinar is moderated by Rachel Lee Bocwinski of the American Chemical Society and co-produced with the ACS Office of Safety Programs. As part of ACS’s ongoing celebration of our 150th anniversary\, this month we reaffirm our commitment to safety by elevating lab protocols\, chemical risk awareness\, and environmental health standards. \n“What You Will Learn”\n– Practical ways to use the LSCS e-Textbook and the RAMP® framework to build student independence\, confidence\, and critical thinking \n– Insight into where safety instruction breaks down across courses and roles\, and how to create a cohesive\, reinforced approach \n– Actionable entry points to embed safety into your existing curriculum\, leveraging TAs and student roles even within real institutional constraints
