Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the CECAM/Psi-k workshop

“Interface processes in photochemical water splitting: Theory meets experiment”

that will be held at the CECAM Headquarters, in Lausanne (Switzerland) on September 27-30, 2016.

This workshop will address the relevant experimental challenges and most crucial methodological limitations in photochemical water splitting by functional interfaces. The aim is to identify guidelines for designing more efficient devices as well as for achieving quantitative theoretical modeling of interfacial processes.

Applicants are invited to submit an abstract through the workshop website (http://www.cecam.org/workshop-1303.html), specifying between a poster or an oral presentation.

The submission deadline is June 15. Accepted participants will be notified by June 30.

You can find below a list of confirmed invited speakers.
