Poster presentation:July 3rd, 2023
No poster presentation:July 7th, 2023
The objective of this symposium is to design novel catalysts and to understand their catalysis. Eight invitedlectures will be given and mainly about original experimental and theoretical studies on homogeneouscatalysts. We anticipate these lectures will have a strong impact on a wide range of research fields of catalysis.
Therefore, a poster session will be conducted to encourage discussion among different research fields ofexperimental and theoretical studies on homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts.
Thank you very much for your excellent contributions!
