RSC-IISER Desktop Seminar Series
Royal Society of Chemistry is organising a series of Desktop Seminars with Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISERs). Each seminar will feature a journal published by the RSC and discuss research targeted on subject areas related to it.PCCP Desktop Seminar
The first in the RSC-IISER Desktop Seminar Series is jointly organised by PCCP and IISER Thiruvananthapuram. This virtual event will have scientific talks by renowned researchers across the areas of Physical Chemistry including the Chair and Deputy Chair of PCCP. The seminar will bring together scientists in a stimulating and friendly environment that will facilitate sharing of knowledge and foster collaborations in times of limited travel. You will also have the opportunity to speak to the team behind the journal and learn more about the RSC products.Registration
The event is free to attend, but as seats are limited, we would encourage you to register your place at the earliest by clicking the BOOK NOW tab on top of this page. We truly look forward to welcome you at the symposium.Twitter based Poster Competition:
Research Scholars working in the field of Physical Chemistry will have an excellent opportunity to showcase their work through the Twitter based poster competition. You will have the chance to win three Best Poster Prizes from PCCP and the winners will also get a presentation slot to speak during the Desktop Seminar.Click the Useful Links on top of this page for further details on the Twitter based Poster Competition.
