CrystEngComm was delighted to sponsor a poster prize at the recent International Conference on the Chemistry of the Organic Solid State (ICCOSS XX), held at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore.
The prize was awarded to Vjekoslav Štrukil from the Rudjer Boskovic Institute in Zagreb, Croatia, by Christer Aakeroy, for his poster on “Mechanochemical Synthesis of Zinc and Cadmium Metal-Organic Frameworks – The Story of Dimensionality and Solid-State Reactivity”. Find out more about Dr Štrukil’s work by visiting his lab’s webpages (Laboratory for Physical Organic Chemistry), or reading this news story.
