  ## About JPP, SPP and ICPP
  
  The Journal of Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines (JPP) covers the recent research works that happen in the area of porphyrins, phthalocyanines and related macrocycles. Research articles, reviews and communications that deal with the synthesis, spectroscopy, processing and applications of these compounds. The Society of Porphyrins & Phthalocyanines (SPP) was formed in June 2000, by a group of scientists who are working in the area of porphyrins phthalocyanines & related macrocycles in any scientific discipline. SPP purchased the Journal of Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines (JPP) from John Wiley & Sons at the end of 2001 and for the next seven years handled all aspects of its publication out of the Dijon office. SPP organises a biennial conference named International Conference on Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines (ICPP) in various parts of the world.
