The Electrochemistry GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes an array of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Electrochemistry provides mechanisms to efficiently convert between electrical and chemical energy, to control and drive chemical reactions and separations using electricity, and to measure and mimic biological signaling processing. This year’s GRC on Electrochemistry emphasizes this pervasive role of electrochemistry in science, engineering, and technology. Presentations and discussions will range from atomistic, molecular-level understanding and modelling of foundational electrochemical processes to applications of electrochemistry in areas such as energy storage, electrochemical synthesis of fuels, chemicals, and materials, and electrochemistry in the biological sciences. Fundamental topics will include electron and ion transfer at dynamic interfaces and phase boundaries, along with electrochemically driven transport in complex media. Applied topics will address important and emerging applications of electrochemistry, from electrochemical manufacturing to neuroscience. The program will highlight emerging areas in machine-learning and artificial intelligence and how these innovations are impacting understanding, modelling, and control of electrochemical systems.
Speakers, discussion leads, and attendees will be targeted to represent the global community of academic, national laboratory, and industry researchers at the cutting edge in this field.
The program thus bridges emphasis on foundational discoveries with cutting-edge applications, fostering dialogue that advances both fundamental electrochemistry and real-world impact through electrochemical technology.
