Symposium: ‘Reinventing Chemistry Together’ with Ben Feringa and others
Since 2019, the Advanced Research Center Chemical Building Blocks Consortium (ARC CBBC) has brought academic institutions – including the UG – and the business world together in a joint research context. To celebrate the Consortium’s fifth anniversary, the parties involved are organizing a symposium on 22 April 2021 from 1 to 5.15 p.m.
