Introduction

The RSC Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson Dalton Poster Symposium provides an opportunity for talented early career inorganic chemists (PhDs and postdocs) to present their work to the wider community and senior representatives from industry and academia. If you are a PhD student or a postdoctoral researcher working in inorganic chemistry then you can submit an abstract and take part in this exciting event.
 
Attending this event will help you make research connections for future collaboration, raise your visibility and to engage with the wider topic area community. Poster presenters will have the opportunity to win significant prizes including bursaries to attend an international conference. A RSC Careers and Professional Development advisor will also be on hand to provide advice on navigating the next stages of your career.

The RSC Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson Dalton Poster Symposium is free to attend for successful applicants, who will also receive support for their travel to the meeting.
 
The RSC Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson Dalton Poster Symposium is not to be missed. We look forward to welcoming you to London in September 2026.
