The aim of the seminars is to provide the opportunity:
- To allow postgraduate students to develop their skills in presenting their research to an audience;
- To allow new members of the School of Chemical Sciences to present their work and establish collaborations;
- To inform the Research groups about new research results;
- To allow internal and external speakers to introduce to the Centre interesting new and existing research areas;
- To invite speakers to visit the School of Chemical Sciences, contact its members and talk about their research.
We strongly believe that this seminar series provides unique opportunities to all of us and we anticipate the active participation of all members of the School of Chemical Sciences.
