Conference Suggestions

Some relevant conferences are listed below:
  • AIChE Annual Meeting
  • This is always a good choice to consider since it brings the ChemE community together, although it is not topic-specific.
  • Gordon Research Seminars/Conferences
  • This is a great, immersive way to partake in a conference on a particular topic of interest. Don't forget to register for both the GRS and the GRC for a given symposium.
  • MRS Fall or MRS Spring Meeting
  • The topics in the MRS sessions are often quite specific, so it can be a bit hit-or-miss depending on your interests.
  • ACS Fall or ACS Spring Meeting
  • The meeting is huge. On the plus side, there is always an interesting talk going. On the downside, it can be a bit hectic to navigate, and the turnout for each talk is often relatively low.
  • FOMMS
  • This is a nice conference for computational modeling folks within our research field.
If there is ever somebody you want me to introduce you to at a conference, I'm happy to do so!
