Faraday Community poster symposium 2024

Introduction

The Faraday Community for Physical Chemistry is proud to bring together outstanding PhD students, post-doctoral researchers, and early-career scientists working in industry for the second ever Faraday Community Poster Symposium. This poster symposium provides a fantastic opportunity for researchers to showcase their research and network with peers, leading academics, and industrial chemists, develop their skills, and support their future careers.

Delegates will give a short flash talk and present their posters in a poster session at the 欧美AV鈥檚 facilities at Burlington House, London.

Our judges will recognise the best posters on the day for several prizes, and delegates will also choose their favourite poster, which will win a prize of a 拢200 gift voucher for an 欧美AV book.

The Faraday Community poster symposium is free to attend for successful applicants, who will also receive support for their travel.

Careers consultations

A qualified career and professional development adviser for the 欧美AV will be available for free one-to-one, confidential consultations on any aspect of your career. Consultations are available for all delegates and can be booked during your registration.

Your consultation will be for 15 minutes; examples of things your consultation could include:
