Jesse Gordon (Nocera Lab) is selected for the 2025 CAS Future Leaders program
On Thursday, March 20, CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) specializing in scientific knowledge management, announced that Jesse Gordon, a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Nocera Lab, has been selected as a participant in the 2025 CAS Future Leaders™ program. The full cohort features 35 early-career scientists from 12 countries, conducting research in fields such as nanotechnology, computational chemistry, materials science, green chemistry, and more.
During the in-person program, which will take place in August, participants will attend leadership and career development workshops, learn about mentorship from industry leaders, participate in science discourse, and forge connections with fellow scientists. The two-week program will also offer participants exclusive insight into CAS operations and how the organization provides leading innovators with access to and analysis of published scientific information from around the globe. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to present their research at the ACS Fall 2025 conference in Washington, DC, and will receive a three-year ACS membership.
“We are proud to equip early-career scientists with leadership and communication skills that enable them to have an even greater impact in their areas of expertise. The record number of applicants this year shows that scientists appreciate the program’s purpose to help them grow as leaders,” said Peter Carlton, CAS Future Leaders program director.
