The Brazilian Meeting on Organic Synthesis (BMOS) is a biennial event that brings together researchers from the field of synthetic organic chemistry in Brazil, from several countries in Latin America, as well as some members from the USA, Europe and Asia. The speakers are the main exponents of the area now in world sense.
It is a meeting that brings together senior scientists and juniors, and postgraduate and undergraduate students, all of them having their Organic Synthesis research theme. In this meeting, there is a wide and deep discussion of research topics in the area, as well as new frontiers of knowledge, always with the presence of new talents and internationally consolidated researchers, both Brazilian and foreign. The choice of the speakers is always guided by the excellence of the guests and their areas of action, bringing to the direct contact of the participants of the event border issues and current challenges of the area science.
The facilitation of the participation of undergraduate and graduate students has always been one of the main driving force of the BMOS, to encourage their interaction with Brazilian and foreign researchers, stimulating the exchange of ideas and students, to avoid endogeny. In fact, several sandwich and postdoctoral doctoral programs were established because of this initiative, including several current researchers in Organic Synthesis in several national institutions, were benefited from the possibility of contact and the execution of postdoctoral studies in the from previous BMOS.
In this meeting, the English language is established as official language and the meetings are itinerant and always involving a good concentration of organic synthetic chemicals. In addition, they were held in places where all participants could be "confined" in one place to make interactivity as effective as possible.
Considerable progress has been made over the last 36 years in which many of us have cherished the dream of having a community of synthetic and competitive synthetic organic chemicals in the country: several groups are consolidated, regularly published in national and international journals and have the recognition of their peers from Brazil and abroad. These facts lead to the comforting sensation that the generation that started the event we know today as Brazilian Meeting on Organic Synthesis did a magnificent job and resulted in an invaluable legacy to Brazilian science. The generation that succeeded them is now responsible for the continuity of the BMOS, and has the task of continuing with the consolidation of the organic synthesis in Brazil. But, of course, much remains to be done. We must continue to contribute to our research area with innovative and challenging ideas, adequately training our students and preparing the new generations so that they contribute to the advancement of scientific knowledge and scientific cooperation between Brazilian and foreign groups in the broadest sense.
