Conference Description
The Nuclear Chemistry 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scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages.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.
The 2023 Gordon Research Conference on Nuclear Chemistry will discuss recent advances in nuclear structure and reactions as well as the most promising research areas for a new generation of nuclear laboratories. The focus will be on new phenomena in exotic nuclei and the influence of the continuum on their properties at the confluence of reactions and structure. The connection between nuclear science and astrophysics will be discussed. Continuing the tradition started in the 2011 Nuclear Chemistry GRC, a Gordon student/postdoctoral Seminar (GRS) prior to the conference will be organized. This two-day event will allow younger nuclear scientists to present their research and network with their peers in a stimulating and friendly atmosphere.
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 February 11, 2023. Please check back for updates.
