Over the past few days, the ChemSci2020 Symposium @ IISER Kolkata has been held (virtually). The Department of Chemical Science, IISER Kolkata organised the second edition of the RSC sponsored Chemical Science conference, ChemSci2020: Leaders in the Field Symposium. The symposium has included presentations by students and postdocs, and a twitter-based poster session.
