The annual organic chemistry poster symposium is the 蜜桃社区 Organic Chemistry Community's flagship event for early career researchers. Dedicated to posters from some of the best final year organic chemistry PhD students in the UK and Ireland the Organic Chemistry Poster Symposium provides a fantastic opportunity to:
- Develop key skills vital for your future career.
- Network with peers and senior researchers in academia and industry.
- Benefit from careers advice; get the advice and insight to inform and support your future.
- Get recognised and gain visibility within the scientific community by showcasing your work.
- Get feedback from peers and experts.
This is a rare opportunity to gain this experience in an event dedicated to you, as an early career scientist working in the field of organic chemistry.
Posters are welcome from all areas of organic chemistry, including but not limited to:
- Bioorganic chemistry and chemical biology
- Green chemistry
- Medicinal chemistry
- Natural products
- Organic synthesis and synthetic methodologies
- Physical and theoretical organic chemistry
- Polymer chemistry
- Supramolecular, macromolecular and organic materials
The symposia will showcase the top 40 submitted abstracts as selected by the Scientific Organising Committee. On the day each poster presenter will also present a 1-minute flash presentation before their poster session where they will have approximately 90 minutes to discuss their work, including dedicated 1-on-1 time with the judges.
A panel of judges will select the best poster of the day, along with two runners up each receiving cash prizes.
The Organic Chemistry Poster Symposium is free to attend for successful applicants, who will also receive support for their travel.
