    The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers working on the theme of Molecules for Net Zero and Materials for Net Zero to join forces in developing solutions to the challenges of Net Zero. Some topics related to both the themes are described below:

    1. Green Synthesis/Catalysis involving small molecules or materials/polymers especially from bio-derived feedstock or CO2
    2. Development of molecules/materials or related concepts for applications in energy storage (e.g. battery, and hydrogen storage)
    3. New approaches/concepts of circular economy and waste recycling (e.g. CO2 capture and chemical recycling of plastic waste)

    The conference will involve 7 plenary lectures, and 18 session plenary lectures on both the themes. Additionally, there will be 36 oral presentations and poster/flash presentations to be selected from the submitted abstracts.

    We look forward to seeing you in St. Andrews which is a delightful mediaeval town on the sea with beautiful beaches and is the home of golf and June is one of the best times to visit.

    The mission of the New Energy Summer Summit is to increase the capacity of early-stage energy and climate researchers to accelerate transitions to equitable and sustainable energy systems and a healthy climate via interdisciplinary scholarship and collaboration. Each year, the Summit convenes an increasingly global cohort of scholars from a wide range of disciplines in an intimate setting for structured and unstructured creative exchange and peer-to-peer networking. This year’s agenda includes expanded opportunities to enhance critical skills for multi/interdisciplinary collaboration and scholarship such as communication, and proposal and publication workshopping, as well as ample time to connect with senior faculty and practitioners for career advising, mentorship, and networking. Attendees join an expanding “New Energy Network” of Summit alumni for continued exchange of ideas and opportunities.

    Interested advanced PhD students, postdocs, and assistant professors can apply to attend the Summit by filling out the New Energy Summit Application Form. Please share this opportunity widely. The deadline to apply is March 17. Reach out to Dr. Megan Litwhiler Megan.E.Litwhiler@dartmouth.edu with any questions.
