Fundamentals of Separation Science and Engineering

The 2022 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Chemical Separations brings together graduate students, post-docs, and other early-career scientists with comparable experience levels in the field. The seminar offers participants an exceptional environment to discuss their cutting-edge research, exchange ideas, initiate collaborations, and network with peers.

Our focus is to attract a diverse group of trainees working in the broad area of chemical separations for commodity and specialty chemicals, environmental science, and analytical chemistry. All selected attendees will have the opportunity to participate in the GRS by presenting a poster, giving an oral presentation, or serving as a discussion leader. In addition, the GRS participants will have the distinctive opportunity to interact with a select panel of established investigators and non-academic scientists during an organized career panel session to give attendees more insight into the potential career opportunities within the field of separation science. This two-day event will provide young scientists with the opportunity to explore the most up-to-date research and exchange ideas with other colleagues that would lead the chemical separation field in the coming decade.
