Learning Organic Synthesis Tremendously (LOST ?) : From experiments to knowledge
May 21, 22, 23 2007, Facultés Universitaires Notre Dame de la Paix, Namur, Belgium
Objective
Transfer knowledge form the basic to the more advanced level to an audience of researchers which is not acquainted to the topic.
Attendance
International participation is encouraged as well as a good balance between researchers from University and Industry and freshman to confirmed scientists. The attendance is limited to 250 participants.
Organisation
Three days of intensive courses on unrelated topics, delivered each one by a well established scientist in the field in a single day. Each lecturer will deliver at the end of the day a Keynote lecture. A poster session will be organized each day.
