Keynote Speakers
The keynote lectures of the GTL18 will be presented by:
University of Oxford
Development of Main Group compounds – particularly those of the group 2, 13 and 14 elements – to achieve unprecedented reactivity in the capture and activation of small molecules. Our aim is to alter the perception of the capabilities of Main Group compounds in stoichiometric and catalytic reactions.
University of Bonn
Chemistry of Transition Metal-Tetrel Triple Bonds – Molecular Chemistry of Silicon and Germanium in Low Oxidation States.
Victoria University of Wellington
Synthesis and reactivity of Group 14 complexes; low valent heterobimetallic chemistry.
ETH Zurich
The Kovalenko Team develops novel, scalable quantum light sources from colloidal quantum dots and their assemblies. The long-term objective is to implement them for quantum communications and sensing. Additionally, they explore new materials for electrochemical energy storage and hard radiation detection.
Indian Institute of Science Education and Research
Our ongoing research is directed towards the syntheses of heavier main-group compounds and their state-of-the-art applications. We majorly focus on innovative molecular catalyst designs and energy storage materials preparations in nano-dimensions.
University of Tsukuba
Creation of novel organic-inorganic compounds containing low-coordinated heavier main group elements from the viewpoint of fundamental chemistry.
