Dear Colleagues,
In the past year, we’ve all learned to adjust to a world where we do not necessarily interact with people face-to-face. Instead, we’ve learned to move our interactions online. While this can be a challenge in many ways, it has also led to new ways of doing things. Many scientific conferences have moved online, where people from all over the world can discuss the latest research without ever leaving their home. ECCS 2021 invites you to join this brave new world of remote scientific conferences and join your colleagues in the catalysis community. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
There is no cost to participate in ECCS 2021, and by participating, you could potentially win one of two awards: Best Paper Award (500 CHF) and Best Poster Award (500 CHF). All submitted abstracts will be evaluated by the conference committee. Upon acceptance of their abstract, authors will contribute an extended abstract to the conference proceedings and a slide presentation of their work. Outstanding contributions will be invited to submit a full manuscript for potential publication in Catalysts.
I hope that you will choose to be a part of this exciting conference and present your most transformative research on catalysis.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Keith Hohn

Meet Our Speakers
Prof. Dr. Kotohiro Nomura
Tokyo Metropolitan University, Tokyo, Japan;
Prof. Kotohiro Nomura finished his undergraduate and master studies in Saitama University (1986) and University of Tokyo (1988), and joined as a research scientist in the Organic Synthesis Research Laboratory, Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd. He received his Ph.D. degree in 1993 from Osaka University (by thesis submission) and spent two years as the postdoctoral fellow at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, USA). He then returned Sumitomo and moved to Nara Institute of Science and Technology as an associate professor in 1998. He has been a full professor in Department of Chemistry, Tokyo Metropolitan University since April 2010. He has ca. 250 original papers (including more than 100 ACS publications) and ca. 100 reviews and book chapters. He received three major awards from the Chemical Society of Japan (1996, for Young Chemists in Industry), Catalysis Society of Japan (Society Awards in the industrial field (2001) and the academic field (2019)). His research focuses on the design of molecular catalysts for efficient carbon–carbon bond formation, including olefin polymerization, synthesis of advanced polymers by precision polymerization, and chemospecific organic transformations.
Prof. Dr. Wen-Hua Sun
Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China;
Prof. Dr. Wen-Hua Sun heads a group of organometallic chemistry and catalysis at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences since October of 1999, nowadays has also been a professor teaching at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences from 2014. Received his B.Sc. in chemistry at Lanzhou University (1986) and Ph.D at Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP, 1989/1994). He worked in LICP as Associate Professor (1993) and Hokkaido University with JSPS, COE and JST. He was selected as Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (2011) and member of European Academy of Sciences (2017). His contributions have had international impacts across the areas of polymerization catalysts for conversional alpha-olefins and polyolefins, biodegradable polymers and bio-massive process as well as their intermediates and reaction mechanism. His group has been opened to domestic and international colleagues, those collaborations have visually recognized according his publications indicating coauthor members from various affiliations. His services in academy include editorial board members for Polymer, Molecules, Catalysts, Polyolefin Journal and General Chemistry currently.

During the duration of the conference, a number of live online sessions will be programmed. Each session will consist on 1–4 speakers lecturing on special topics, and will be moderated by a chair. During each session, the participants will have the possibility to ask questions during a Q&A session. Detailed information about the topics will be shared later.
The live sessions are free. The number of participants to the live session is limited but the recording will be made available on Sciforum shortly afterwards. To access the live sessions you will need to register beforehand, please go to the below sections to find more information.
