Registration Closed

This event is no longer available for registration.

Synopsis

The 24th Annual Review Meeting: ‘Emerging Concepts and Techniques in Organic Synthesis’, organised by the SCI Young Chemists’ Panel, will address key areas of contemporary synthetic organic chemistry. An exciting line-up of leading early career academics will deliver a series of review lectures covering a range of topics: reaction kinetics, photoredox catalysis, non-covalent interactions in catalysis, and dynamic combinatorial chemistry. The meeting will deliver a comprehensive overview of the material, highlight new methods and introduce (potential) industrial application. The review lectures will be supported by two plenary speakers: Professor David Procter from the University of Manchester and Professor Martin Smith from the University of Oxford.

Attendees

The meeting is ideally suited to those working in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology or agrochemical industries who want to develop their knowledge in key areas. It is also aimed at those in academia, particularly graduates and post-graduates with a background in synthesis and catalysis. A booklet will be provided to all participants containing the lecture materials as well as extensive literature references that will be an excellent resource for years to come.
