SYNFORM, aims at complementing the information provided by the Thieme Chemistry journals. SYNFORM will serve the international chemistry community by publishing timely information about new scientific advances in organic chemistry and related fields of research. In addition, SYNFORM will inform you about facts and people from the world of chemical sciences – all this in a stimulating and thought-provoking manner. SYNFORM is consisting of two sections: "The Inside Story" and "SynStories".

"The Inside Story" is a peer interview in which the main author of a recent groundbreaking article, an opinion leader in the chemical sciences, or an expert in an important area dealing with chemistry (politics, ethical issues, society, etc.) will be interviewed by an eminent competent personality.

"SynStories" is a format for important information about new scientific advances, as reported in the most exciting recent papers in the field of organic chemistry, accompanied by both the author's personal views and comments by other experts. In addition, "SynStories" will present accurate and up-to-date news about people, institutions, new trends, conferences and perspectives of the world of chemical sciences, and much more.

We hope that you, the true protagonists of SYNFORM will contribute with your feedback, opinions, ideas, suggestions, and (why not!) criticism, in order to make of SYNFORM a dynamic and stimulating public space for scientific scholarly discussion on topics of interest for the world of chemical sciences.

If you have any questions or wish to send feedback, please contact Matteo Zanda at: Synform@chem.polimi.it
