The ECG Distinguished Guest Lecture (DGL) and Symposium is our annual flagship event, and focusses on a specific contemporary environmental chemistry topic. Previous DGLs have included anti-microbial resistance, radioactive waste disposal, and electronics manufacture and waste. The Distinguished Guest Lecturer is a scientist who is recognised to have made a significant contribution to the field and is awarded a medal.
The 2024 DGL is available in hybrid format for those further afield or unable to travel to London for the specific date.
Please join us for this exciting opportunity to discuss a very hot topic and understand its implications.
