Challenges in Catalysis for Pharmaceuticals and Fine Chemicals VI - poster deadline extension 1st october

Registration is now open for Challenges in Catalysis for Pharmaceuticals & Fine Chemicals VI organised by the RSC Applied Catalysis Group and the SCI Fine Chemicals Group. The event will be held on Wednesday, 14th November 2018 at the RSC Burlington House Piccadilly. This conference will cover topics in the application of catalysis including base metal catalysis, biocatalysis, metathesis, photoredox catalysis and reaction progress kinetics. The challenges conference series brings the usual mix of relevant academic talks and industrial application. We hope you find it interesting and look forward to seeing you there.

Enantioselective copper catalysis in continuous flow by Prof Anita Mcguire, UCC, Ireland
Photocatalysis in early and late-stage development at MSD by Daniel DiRocco, Merck, USA
Bringing order to kinetics in catalysis by Jordi Bures, University of Manchester, UK
Biocatalysis as a key enabling technology for GSK by Karen Tiffin, GSK, UK
Making olefin metathesis work: from basic discoveries to industrial applications by Prof Karol Grela, University of Warsaw, Poland
Fragrances through catalytic homogeneous hydrogenation transition states by Fridtjof Schroeder, Givaudan, Switzerland
