Report | The Research School PLUS gave me the opportunity to attend at the 246th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in Indianapolis, USA. Conferences are in general the places to make new contacts and meet other young scientists, exchange ideas about chemistry and discuss about recent progress in your research area.Thanks to the funding I could present my work in an oral presentation in front of a big audience. Giving a talk at an international conference is something I can recommend to all Ph.D. students . Besides the nice feeling that you get after surviving the question and answer part, it is a nice start of discussions with other professors and students during the poster session. Like that I was having fruitful discussions with Prof. Girolami, University of Urbana - Champaign in Illinois (USA), and his students. We exchanged our new progress in the development of precursors for the chemical vapor deposition of metal oxides and the choice of suitable ligands for their design. I ´m now back in the lab in Bochum to transfer the ideas I got during the conference to my doctoral project and with more confidence for (hopefully) further presentation on conferences and seminars. http://www.acs.org/content/acs/en.html |
