What are the most exciting topics in physical chemistry? What important questions are going unanswered? Where do we want our field to be in 10 years? What barriers require attention in order to meet our goals? How can experimental and theoretical physical chemists work together to define institutional and national directions in chemistry and interdisciplinary science and engineering? These are the general subjects to be discussed at the first Wintergreen Meeting of Physical Chemists.
After you register, we will reach out with a separate link to pay for your registration. The cost to register is $910 and includes a single-occupancy room for 4 nights, breakfast & lunch, and meals for the opening/closing reception dinners. Resort recreational activities and other meals are not included.
