Nuclear Chemistry (GRS)

Gordon Research Seminar

Novel Developments in Nuclear Reaction, Structure and Astrophysics

June 10 - 11, 2023

Chairs Andrea Jedele and Aldric Revel

Colby-Sawyer College

541 Main Street

New London, New Hampshire, United States

Venue and Travel Information

Conference Description

The Nuclear Chemistry GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

The objective is to have a meeting where young nuclear chemists and physicists can discuss their current research, novel techniques and future experiments on the subjects of nuclear structure, reactions and astrophysics. The meeting is a fantastic opportunity for attendees to form new collaborations and network with other scientists from around the globe. The meeting will also have a career panel consisting of scientists from a wide range of career paths, including academia, national laboratories and industry.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Nuclear Chemistry" 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.
