Inorganic Chemistry Frontiers poster prizes awarded at the 6th EuChemMS conference on Nitrogen Ligands

The 6th EuCheMS conference on Nitrogen Ligands was successfully held at on 13-17th, Beaune, France

This conference attracted scientists with an interest in the field of metal-nitrogen ligand chemistry from Europe and abroad. Scope of the 2015 meeting has been broadened by including recent advances from the fields of coordination chemistry, metal-organic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and materials & catalysis.

Inorganic Chemistry Frontiers was delighted to sponsor two poster prizes and we would like to join in congratulating the winners.

  • Amandine Conte-Daban (Université Paul Sabatier, France)

‘A new probe to determine the affinity constant of Cu2+ for Aβ’

  • Yasin Kuzu (TU Dortmund University, Germany)

‘Planar chiral 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-1-(trimethylsilyl)ferrocenyl substituted silanols, silanolates and siloxanes’

The winners all received a certificate and a Royal Society of Chemistry book voucher as rewards.

Once again, our warmest congratulations to all our winners!
