vMASC Call For Abstracts (for 2024/25)

vMASC Early-Career Seminars: Call for Abstracts

The organising committee of the virtual Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry (vMASC) seminar series are inviting abstracts from all early-career researchers (Master’s, PhD, post-doc) for oral presentations in 2024/25.

The committee wishes to encourage submissions from any researcher working in supramolecular chemistry in the broadest sense.

Please prepare your abstract, including a very short biography, using the abstract template below, and online submission form: https://forms.gle/FqJ1zSGpG9EKoMYm8

Please select one of the following general categories when submitting your abstract:

  • Macrocycles
  • Host guest chemistry
  • Mechanically interlocked molecules
  • Molecular cages
  • Supramolecular materials
  • Computational supramolecular chemistry
  • Supramolecular sensors
  • Supramolecular catalysis
  • Crystal engineering
  • Solid state supramolecular chemistry
  • Other

The closing date for abstract submission is Friday 16th August 2024 with outcomes announced later this season.

There are many reasons to submit an abstract:

  • Showcase your research to a wide and international audience;
  • Discuss your science amongst a friendly community;
  • An opportunity to develop your presentation skills (CV building material!);
  • Community feedback (and short provided upon request).

The committee will be looking to fulfill the following criteria when selecting abstracts for presentation:

  • Breadth and quality of scientific research;
  • Opportunities for research students;
  • Increasing participation from a wider range of research groups and institution;
  • International representation due to flexible time slots (9:30am or 2:30pm UK time).

Further details about the vMASC seminars can be found online at: https://mascgroup.co.uk

The vMASC core committee look forward to receiving your abstract.
