Programme

University of York, in the Spring Lane/Exhibition Hall complex

2027 Sunday June 13th - Thursday June 17th 2027

There will be 20 keynote and ~24 selected oral contributions, with talks running from Sunday afternoon to Thursday afternoon. There will be two, dedicated, poster sessions (with posters staying up for the whole conference). 

As in Trieste, there will be a dedicated event to discuss industry-academic interactions, with a focus towards engaging PhD and PDRA participants. 

The conference dinner will be held on Thursday evening in the speculator Station Hall of the National Railway Museum, where we will celebrate the conference amongst iconic steam locomotives, including a Royal Train. 

 

Conference Themes

The conference will cover the broad range of sub-disciplines in homogeneous catalysis, with an emphasis on the following themes:

  1. Applied catalysis and processes
  2. Biocatalysis
  3. The interface between homo- and heterogeneous catalysis
  4. Catalysis for a sustainable and circular economy
  5. Emerging technologies for catalysis
  6. Digitisation, modelling and prediction
  7. Catalysis using Platinum Group Metals
  8. Catalysis using earth abundant metals
  9. Main-group catalysis
  10. Photocatalysis and electrocatalysis

Keynote Speakers will be updated in late 2025/early 2026.
