Disaster Resource Management
This Special Issue will gather natural disaster management plans and lessons learned for the chemistry community to consider. Natural disasters can have a devastating impact on research institutions, causing damage to laboratory facilities and disrupting ongoing research. ACS Chemical Health & Safety welcomes submissions that share lessons learned to help others prepare and implement effective strategies for academic resource reconstruction and psychological resilience. Submission Deadline: June 30, 2025

Chemical Safety in Universities: Legally Enforced vs Culturally Embraced
ACS Chemical Health & Safety welcomes submissions that provide an overview and discussion of chemical safety practices in university laboratories operating in countries that have little to no regulations that address small-scale chemical users. While regulations can help define safety practices, this Special Issue aims to remember that economic, cultural, organizational, and technical factors influence what will be the best approach for different countries that need their own regulations and approaches. Submission Deadline: August 31, 2025
