Chemistry and Physics of Graphitic Carbon Materials (GRS)

Gordon Research Seminar

From Fundamentals to Applications

June 14 - 15, 2014

 Venue and Travel Information

Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on the Chemistry and Physics of Graphitic Carbon Materials is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

Attendees with different background will not only present their research and discuss with peers with comparable levels, but also may communicate with senior scientists (keynote session speaker and conclusion session speaker, under inviting). Topics of this GRS include but not limited to synthesis/fabrication, characterization, and computational study of graphitic carbon materials (graphene, carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, activated carbon, and so on), as well as the applications in energy transformation, catalysis, and biomedicine development.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Chemistry and Physics of Graphitic Carbon Materials" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
