UK Catalysis Hub Winter Conference 2020 - Watch Now

When: 7 – 8 December 2020
Where: Virtual

After careful consideration of the rapidly evolving situation with COVID-19 we decided it was best to postpone the UK Catalysis Hub summer conference that was due to take place in July. 

The conference took place on the 7th and 8th of December 2020 and was a virtual event.

The conference included the presentation of the JMT Medal for Catalysis and a poster session showcasing work from the Hub postdocs.
