BasKat Basque Catalysis symposium with Avelino Corma

Catalysis lies at the heart of modern chemistry, driving innovation across energy, sustainability, and advanced materials. In the Basque Country, and particularly in San Sebastián, a true City of Science, many faculties, research centres, and research groups are actively engaged in this broad field. BASKAT is a symposium dedicated to showcasing the catalysis research carried out across the Basque Country, with the aim of fostering future collaborations in this area. The programme will feature a Plenary Opening Lecture by Avelino Corma. Attendance is free of charge, but registration is required due to the limited number of seats available. Do not miss this opportunity.
