📣 Register now for our annual symposium!

We are pleased to announce that registration for our annual symposium, taking place on Friday, May 8th in downtown Montréal, is now open!

We are very lucky to have some amazing guest speakers from a wide range of fields this year:

Dr. Chao-Jun (C-J) Li develops sustainable catalytic methods for organic synthesis, with a focus on C–H functionalization, cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC), and reactions in green solvents (e.g., water) to improve atom economy and reduce waste.

Dr. Félix Therrien develops generative machine learning methods (e.g., GFlowNets) for materials and catalyst design, integrating deep learning with physics-based models for applications in clean energy and climate technologies.

Dr. Steve Bourgault studies peptide and protein self-assembly using chemical and biophysical approaches, and applies this to design functional biomolecular nanomaterials.

Registration for the event is FREE and we encourage you to register as soon as possible to secure your spot, as space is limited and tickets are on a first-come, first-serve basis.
