In the past decade, systems chemistry has emerged as a field for studying complex chemical systems akin to life. Systems chemistry is interdisciplinary by nature, with inspirations from various fields including biology, physics and computer science. However, the researchers from different backgrounds tend to lack common "language" to communicate with, as well as common goals to pursue as a field.

In this discussion series, we discuss variety of topics about systems chemistry, such as Brownian ratchet mechanisms, feedback-controlled systems, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, adaptive materials, supramolecular assemblies etc.. We aim at bridging the gaps between the different subfields by free, in-depth discussions on each topic. The discussion is held every 1-2 months. On each occasion, a speaker will give a presentation (20-30 min), followed by discussion (1-1.5 h).
