Crystal Engineering (GRS)

Gordon Research Seminar

Metal-Organic Materials: Past, Present, and Future

June 9 - 10, 2012
Chair Mohamed H. Alkordi
Waterville Valley
56 Packard's Road
Waterville Valley, New Hampshire, United States
 Venue and Travel Information

Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Crystal Engineering is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

This meeting will focus on design, synthesis, and applications of metal-organic materials (MOMs) and coordination polymers (CPs) as well as utilization of different analytical techniques for structure-function relationship investigations.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Crystal Engineering" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
