A Brief History of the Kapisanang Kimika Ng Pilipinas

Abstract

The community of chemists in the country developed from the graduates of the pharmacy program established in the University of Santo Tomas during the Spanish regime.  The number of university-trained chemists increased during the American era, and eventually a formal organization of chemists, the Chemical Society of the Philippines, was established in 1937.  The various aspects of the organization, from its By-Laws to its activities, during its 85 years of existence are reviewed in this paper.
