The Workshop
Three Days of Powerful Talks
The 21st East Asian Workshop on Chemical Dynamics (EAWCD) will be held on December 18 to 21 in Kyoto. "Chemical Dynamics", a branch of physical chemistry, explores chemical reactions and related phenomena at the atomic and molecular levels, and has been growing through a variety of experimental and theoretical methodologies. To grasp recent advances in chemical dynamics studies and discuss the future of this interesting research field, we will have 24 oral speakers in this workshop.
