Conference Description
Due to increased demand and pricing associated with the FIFA World Cup 2026 in the Boston area, GRC strongly encourages attendees
to make travel arrangements early to help minimize associated travel costs. We anticipate limited availability of hotel rooms,
rental cars, and transportation options departing from Boston, so please plan accordingly.
As a cost-effective transportation option, we encourage attendees to consider the GRC bus service, which can be reserved directly
through your myGRC account. Space is limited.
If you require an extended stay, please contact your COA, as GRC has secured a limited number of discounted rooms at the Embassy Suites
Boston Logan Airport.
The Organometallic 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.
This GRS will highlight emerging organometallic approaches to modern-day frontiers in (in)organic synthesis, sustainability and renewable energy, and technological advancements in areas such as materials chemistry, catalysis, and structure-activity relationships. Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars will have the opportunity to present their research, participate in scientific discussion, and network with invited mentors from academia and industry. This community will provide organometallic chemists-in-training valuable insight, mentorship, and guidance on a range of career paths. In order to foster an inclusive environment, early career researchers from all backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Attendees are also encouraged to apply to the associated GRC.
An outline of the program components for this GRS is displayed below. The seminar chair is currently developing their detailed program schedule, which will include the speakers they select from submitted abstracts, in addition to any additional components outlined below. The detailed program will be available by May 12, 2026. Please check back for updates.
