July 15-20, 2007
Salve Regina University
Newport, RI

Chair: William Buhro
Vice Chair: Kimberly Johnson

The Inorganic Chemistry Gordon Research Conference provides an unparalleled setting for discussion of the most current research in inorganic chemistry. Scientists from academic, industrial, and national laboratories meet to define the important problems in the field and to highlight emerging opportunities through exchange of ideas and discussion of unpublished results. Active participation by a traditionally diverse group of participants at this conference results in cross-fertilization among the many constituencies of the vibrant and multifaceted field of inorganic chemistry.

In addition to the invited speakers, we will have two poster sessions (Mon/Tue and Wed/Thurs) and we encourage all registrants to participate in the poster program by contributing their most recent results. Four outstanding posters submitted for judging will be selected (at the conference) for 15-min oral presentations. Although open to everyone, preference will be given to posters submitted by junior faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and those at comparable ranks.

Individuals and organizations interested in sponsoring the Conference this year are encouraged to contact at:

Inorganic Chemistry

July 15-20, 2007
Salve Regina University
Newport, RI

Chair: William Buhro
Vice Chair: Kimberly Johnson

The Inorganic Chemistry Gordon Research Conference provides an unparalleled setting for discussion of the most current research in inorganic chemistry. Scientists from academic, industrial, and national laboratories meet to define the important problems in the field and to highlight emerging opportunities through exchange of ideas and discussion of unpublished results. Active participation by a traditionally diverse group of participants at this conference results in cross-fertilization among the many constituencies of the vibrant and multifaceted field of inorganic chemistry.

In addition to the invited speakers, we will have two poster sessions (Mon/Tue and Wed/Thurs) and we encourage all registrants to participate in the poster program by contributing their most recent results. Four outstanding posters submitted for judging will be selected (at the conference) for 15-min oral presentations. Although open to everyone, preference will be given to posters submitted by junior faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and those at comparable ranks.

Individuals and organizations interested in sponsoring the Conference this year are encouraged to contact at:
