4th International Conference on Fundamentals and Applications of Cerium dioxide in Catalysis - POSTPONED

Ceria and related materials in catalysis

Following the previous successful three international conferences on the topic held in Udine, Beijing and Barcelona, we are glad to organize the “4th Fundamentals and Applications of Cerium dioxide in Catalysis” at Stanford University and in partnership with the SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis. This conference will bring together outstanding researchers working on the general aspects of catalysis by ceria and related materials, including, but not limited to, experimental, computational, and characterization studies of this peculiar catalytic material. In order to foster an inclusive environment and personal connections between participants, the attendance will be limited to a maximum of 100 participants on a first come, first serve basis, and there will be no parallel sessions.

This conference is open to graduate students and postdocs as well as PIs at any level. Invited plenary speakers will report about the latest most exciting developments in the area of catalysis by ceria, and a vibrant poster session will contribute to expand the boundaries of the discussion. This conference, immediately following the 17th International Congress on Catalysis (ICC) held in San Diego in June 2020, will represent a moment for researchers to share their common passion about ceria and the latest ideas and developments in such an exciting field.

We look forward to seeing you at Stanford University!

Date

Initially scheduled for June 20-23, 2020, the conference has been postponed due to COVID-19 situation.
