Conference Description
The Electron Spin Interactions with Chiral Molecules and Materials 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scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages.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 a diverse range 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.
Topics will include: Chirality and Spin in Chemistry; The Role of Chiral Induced Spin-Selectivity in Chemical Reactions; Chiral Molecules and Magnetism; Spin-Selectivity in Chiral Materials; Interaction Effects on Chiral Induced Spin-Selectivity; Chiral Interfaces of Electronic Materials; Spin and Chirality in solids; Spin Transport in Chiral Potentials; Chirality and Spin in Biological and Biomimetic Systems.
The topics, speakers, and discussion leaders for the conference sessions are displayed below. The conference chair is currently developing their detailed program, which will include the complete meeting schedule, as well as the talk titles for all speakers. The detailed program will be available by April 1, 2023. Please check back for updates.
