1.Solar Fuels: Science Engineering and Policy
Dates	11 Jan 2012 → 12 Feb 2012	[ID=440288]
Location	Durham, NC, United States
Abstract	Duke University and the Solar Energy Research Center (SERC) at UNC-Chapel Hill will co-host a scientific meeting at the R. David Thomas Executive Conference Center at Duke University. This year's conference will feature keynote addresses from Michael Grätzel and Louis Brus, as well as sixteen other distinguished speakers in sessions on Foundational Issues, Theory, Catalysis and Bioinspiration, and Directing Charge and Spin with Light. There will also be a roundtable discussion on policy and funding.
Topics	Inorganic/Materials, Solar Energy, Solar Fuels, Physical Chemistry

2.Iron-Sulfur Enzymes
Dates	10 Jun 2012 → 15 Jun 2012	[ID=454870]
Location	South Hadley, MA, United States
Organizer	Gordon Research Conferences
Abstract	First organized in 1994 to focus on nitrogenase and its unique iron sulfur chemistry, knowledge about iron sulfur clusters has grown exponentially in the last two decades, and in 2006, the name of the conference was accordingly changed to Iron Sulfur Enzymes. The conference has tremendous breadth, featuring sessions on numerous iron sulfur enzymes of unicellular organisms, animals, and plants, and important insights into how these versatile protein cofactors are synthesized and function. Proteins containing FeS cofactors perform a variety of biological functions ranging across electron transfer, acid-base catalysis, and sensing where they are agents for cell regulation through transcription (DNA) or translation (RNA). They are redox catalysts for radical-based reactions and the activation of H₂, N₂ and CO₂, processes that offer scientific and economic challenges for industry. Iron-sulfur centers provide the focus for fundamental investigations of chemical bonding, spectroscopy and paramagnetism, and their functions have numerous implications for health and medicine and applications for technology, including renewable energy. This conference will include distinguished speakers and discussion leaders from many fields, and topics will range from mechanistic discussions of bacterial enzymes to discussion of an emerging class of human diseases characterized by abnormalities in their iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis pathway.

3.Catalysis — From Fundamentals to Application
Dates	24 Jun 2012 → 29 Jun 2012	[ID=455103]
Location	New London, NH, United States
Organizer	Gordon Research Conferences
Abstract	Catalysis is a key technology for improving the quality of life while simultaneously reducing the adverse impact of human activities on the environment. The discovery of new catalytic processes and the improvement of existing ones are also critically important for securing the nation's energy supply. The GRC on Catalysis is considered one the most prestigious conference for catalysis research, bringing together leading researchers from both academia, industry and national labs to discuss the latest, most exciting research in catalysis and the future directions for the field. The 2012 GRC on Catalysis "From Fundamentals to Application" will as always focus on new developments in fundamentals of catalysis including the theoretical and spectroscopic understanding of catalytic surfaces, novel catalytic reactions and materials and featured invited talks from the world's leading experts in the fundamentals and applications of catalytic science and technology. In addition, 2012 Catalysis GRC will be specifically focus on application of these fundamentals to key problems in society energy, industry and the environment. The extended discussions in the company of outstanding thinkers will stimulate and foster new science. In 2012, the Catalysis conference will move into the newer conference facilities at Colby-Sawyer with a modern lecture hall and an improved poster session area. The dorm rooms provide single and double accommodations, free WiFi and the registration fee includes all meals and the famous lobster dinner on Thursday night. Afternoons are open to enjoy the New England ambiance with opportunities for hiking, sailing, golf and tennis to create an outstanding conference that will help you network with colleagues, and make long lasting connections.

4.Biocatalysis
Dates	08 Jul 2012 → 13 Jul 2012	[ID=455263]
Location	Smithfield, RI, United States
Organizer	Gordon Research Conferences
Abstract	Biocatalysis encompasses the use of enzymes or whole cell systems for effecting the conversion of readily available, inexpensive starting materials to high value products. Enzymes are fully recyclable catalytic proteins that frequently display exquisite chemo-, enantio- and regioselectivity and operate under mild conditions of pH and temperature. These characteristics make them cost effective and sustainable catalysts for a wide range of chemical transformations. Modern tools of protein discovery, design and engineering aid the development of novel biocatalysts and their tailor-designed integration into industrial processes. Consequently, they find wide application in the production of pharmaceutical intermediates, novel materials and diagnostics,as well as fine, performance and agrochemicals. The Biocatalysis Gordon Conference highlights the best science, technologies and case studies responsible for the understanding, development and practical use of biocatalysts around the world.
