EuChemS Periodic Table was unveiled by EuChemS President Pilar Goya and MEP Catherine Stihler alongside the oldest known wallchart of the Periodic Table at an event in the European Parliament.<\/p>\n<p>With speakers from the scientific community and from the European Parliament and the European Commission, participants were delivered an outstanding talk, encompassing issues such as element scarcity, EU-led actions in the area, elements at the deep-sea level, the meaning and importance of the International Year of the Periodic Table (IYPT2019), as well as the exhilarating discovery of the Periodic Table wallchart in Saint Andrews.<\/p>\n<p>It was all the more encouraging to see a wide variety of participants attend the event, from representatives from chemical societies, EU institutions, advocacy groups, and a class of some 25 pupils from the European School of Brussels.<\/p>\n<p>We were particularly pleased to see the event and the Periodic Table picked up in news outlets across the world, from the UK to Australia. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/programmes\/p06yrcxk?ocid\">Listen<\/a> to David Cole-Hamilton on BBC world, and <a
