The 16th Chinese Symposium on Photochemistry, Chinese Chemical Society, was held in October at Shandong Normal University. The opening ceremony was chaired by Wang Xuesong with Professor Li-Zhu Wu chairing the closing ceremony. The topics covered during the conference included: solar energy conversion, photochemical synthesis, supramolecular photochemistry, biophotochemistry, environmental and atmospheric photochemistry, theoretical photochemistry, spectroscopy, photofunctional materials and other frontier disciplines that intersect photochemistry.

RSC Advances, Journal of Materials Chemistry A & Inorganic Chemistry Frontiers were pleased to sponsor 8 poster prizes.

Congratulations to all of the winners!

International Conference on Catalysis Science and Chemical Engineering (CatScience) will be held from December 2-4, 2019 in Melbourne, Australia. This conference will showcase the latest advances in Chemical Engineering with the theme “Advances and Challenges in Applied Catalysis”. It’s aim is to create a stage for exchanging the latest research results and sharing advanced research methods. Over the course of 3 days, internationally-renowned speakers will describe how their research journies have developed in response to contemporary challenges: inspirational lessons in chemical initiatives and creativity. The conference will bring together academics, chemists, scientists, and engineers/technicians from all over the world to provide a fantastic networking experience.

RSC Advances is pleased to be sponsoring the conference with two Poster Prizes.

The Institute of Metals in Biology of Grenoble organized their 8th International Conference on International Metal Complexes in Imaging and Detection on 24-27 September 2019 in Villard de Lans.  The conference was a success and ran smoothly in the beautiful surroundings of the Vercours Mountains near Grenoble. It covered all aspects of the use of metal complexes in biological imaging and detection, including: Spectroscopy (fluorescence X), Radiolabeling, emission tomography, Luminescence, Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI), Contrast agents for PARACEST and In cellulo detection.

RSC Advances is very pleased to have sponsored two poster prizes and sends congratulations to Margaux Roux & Salauat Kiraev!

The Institute of Metals in Biology of Grenoble has organized the 8th International Conference from the 24-27 September 2019 in Villard de Lans. The village is located in proximity to Grenoble in the magnificent Vercours Mountains. The conference will be preceded by a summer school the 22-24 September focusing on both experimental and spectroscopic techniques in the scope of the conference.

This conference is localized in well reknowned scientific pole of Grenoble in Imaging and detection and it benefits from the exceptional environment provided by the institute of Metal in Biology of Grenoble.  RSC Advances is pleased to be sponsoring 2 oustanding poster presentation prizes.

The Conference

The conference covers all aspects of the use of metal complexes in biological imaging and detection, including:

– Spectroscopy (fluorescence X).

– Radiolabeling, emission tomography .

– Luminescence.

– Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI).

– Contrast agents for PARACEST.

– In cellulo detection.

The Advanced Course 

This course will host a limited number of lectures given by internationally renowned scientists. The format of the courses will facilitate strong interactions between lecturers and attendees. The aim is to provide a top-level teaching in a highly stimulating and non-intimidating environment for graduate students, post-doc, and young scientists. Students and young researchers are strongly encouraged to attend these courses. Topics will focus on the use of metal complexes in spectroscopy, radiolabeling, luminescence, MRI and cellular imaging.
