Mechanistic Studies and Operando Techniques to Innovate in Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry

The Inorganic Reaction Mechanisms GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

The 2023 GRS will feature next-generation approaches and advancements in the study of reaction mechanisms for bio-inorganic, organometallic, inorganic, and materials science disciplines using complementary in-situ and operando spectroscopic techniques. The GRS will promote interactions between the participants and the leaders from academia, national laboratories, and industry, through mentorship and career development programs. In particular, the GRS will provide opportunities to debate challenges at the forefront of chemistry.

Application Instructions

The seminar will feature approximately 10 talks and 2 poster sessions. All attendees are expected to actively participate in the GRS, either by giving an oral presentation or presenting a poster. Therefore, all applications must include an abstract.

The seminar chair will select speakers from abstracts submitted by November 27, 2022. Those applicants who are not chosen for talks and those who apply after the deadline to be considered for an oral presentation will be expected to present a poster. In order to participate, you must submit an application by the date indicated in the Application Information section above.
