Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the scientific and organizing committees, I have the pleasure of inviting you to attend the “Athens Conference on Advances in Chemistry (acac2022)”, which will be held from June 26 to July 1, 2022 in Athens, Greece.

This conference is the third of a series of International Conferences that were initiated on the occasion of the centennial anniversary of the Department of Chemistry at NKUA since its establishment in 1918.

Thanks to all of you it has expanded since the previous one was attended by almost 600 participants from 50 Universities and Institutes distributed to 15 countries all over the world. We hope this conference to be also highly active and a forum for exchange of the latest knowledge concerning chemistry and related areas among researchers from all over the world. We anticipate fruitful discussions on the latest topics during several plenary, keynote, and invited lectures, contributed talks, and poster presentations. In addition, there will be an Early Career Researcher evening event for young researchers, whereas different side meetings and symposiums will take place.

It is our intention to establish an inspiring atmosphere for exchanging innovative ideas and initiating new collaborations and we believe that the Department of Chemistry, NKUA, and the capital of Greece, Athens are the perfect place for it.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Athens.

2nd International Conference on Aerogels for Biomedical and Environmental Applications

 

29 June – 01 July 2022
National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA)
Athens
Greece

 

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the 2nd International Conference on Aerogels for Biomedical and Environmental Applications, which will be held from June 29 to July 1, 2022, in Athens, Greece.

The meeting is organized by the AERoGELS COST Action (https://cost-aerogels.eu) and the Department of Chemistry of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece (http://old.chem.uoa.gr/).

Aerogels are widely known as nanostructured porous ultra-light materials comprising mostly of air. With unique properties traceable to their nanostructure, aerogels make their way into advanced technology. With thermal insulation being their flagship application, aerogels are rapidly penetrating all current areas of nanotechnology, with special momentum in biomedicine and the environment. Biomedical applications include aerogel-based materials as drug carriers, synthetic bone grafts (implants) or advanced wound dressings. Environmental applications include heat insulation, sound insulation, sensing and detection of air and water pollutants, wastewater treatment and air decontamination. The conference will also host a Symposium on Aerogels for Food Applications, which include sustainable ingredients, biodegradable food packaging, and adjuvants for the removal of odors and other contaminants.

We are looking forward to welcoming you all in Athens!

1st Symposium of Graduate Students of the Chemistry Department of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens

 

17-18 March, 2022
Department of Chemistry
Room Α15

 

Dear Colleagues,

it is our great pleasure to announce the 1st Symposium of Graduate Students of the Chemistry Department of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, entitled: “Chemistry and its Applications”, that will take place on 17th and 18th of March 2022 at the premises of the Chemistry Department of NKUA. Its goal is to offer the opportunity to all graduate students (Msc & PhD) to present their research work (oral/poster) and develop competence in the dissemination of their scientific activity. We, the Organizing Committee, hope that this symposium and the future ones will be an exciting time for all the participants.

For more information please visit the website of the symposium: https://conferences.uoa.gr/e/Grad-symp2022, or send an email at Grad-symp@chem.uoa.gr.
