Invitation
Dear Colleagues
On behalf of the organizing committees, we cordially invite you to attend the XXIII IUPAC Symposium on Photochemistry.
The Symposium will be held in Ferrara, Italy, from 11 to 16 July, 2010. This will be the latest in a long series of successful symposia, carrying on a tradition of premier biennial gatherings of scientists with interests in photochemistry and related subjects.
The symposium will provide a framework for presentation and discussion of ideas and information on the interaction of light and matter drawn from the following areas:
- Organic and inorganic photochemistry from a synthetic and mechanistic point of view
- Solar energy conversion
- Materials science and engineering
- Supramolecular chemistry and nanotechnology
- Photobiology and biophysics
- Photonics and imaging
- Spectroscopy and instrumentation
- Photochromism
- Industrial applications of photochemistry and photophysics
Ferrara is a beautiful, ancient city in the northern part of Italy, and has excellent airline connections via nearby airports (Bologna, Venezia) to other cities in Europe. A variety of social events and excursions for accompanying persons are being arranged to make your stay more enjoyable.
We look forward to seeing you at this stimulating meeting.
Franco Scandola, Chair
