Spring 2015 American Chemical Society Graduate Student Symposium Planning Committee

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The proposal provides support to a group of graduate students from the University of Notre Dame to organize and conduct a symposium on biocatalysis at the 249th American Chemical Society National Meeting in Denver, Colorado in the spring of 2015. Not only will this symposium bring together a group of inter-disciplinary experts in the emerging field of biocatalysis, but it will also provide valuable experience to the graduate students in exploring an area of research beyond their immediate thesis research topic and will serve as a magnet in attracting students and younger researchers to this field. This activity has been conducted since 2005 under the guidance of the Graduate Student Symposium Planning Committee of the American Chemical Society (ACS), typically with base funding from ACS supplemented by funding from other organizations.
