This week marks the start of C2MCI Scientific Director Dr. Cathleen Crudden’s lecture series across several French laboratories as a CNRS Ambassador for Chemical Sciences in France.
The Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) “Ambassadors of Chemical Sciences in France” program was created to provide prestigious foreign researchers an opportunity to visit a series of French laboratories active in their field.
Over the next week, Dr. Crudden will travel across France to discuss the application of NHC ligands to stabilize metal surfaces and the impact of NHCs on the chemistry of nanoclusters.
These visits include facility tours, lectures delivered by ambassadors, and opportunities to exchange knowledge, establish contacts, and foster international collaborations with visited French laboratories.
