8th Conference on Frontiers in Organic Synthesis Technology

November 24-26, 2021 | Budapest, Hungary

 

Now a Hybrid event

Welcome

About the Event

FROST8 will be a hybrid event, comprising both an in-person and a virtual conference

Plans for the conference are going exceedingly well and we are confident we will deliver a dynamic, enriching and memorable experience. FROST8 Conference will comprise 3 days of scientific/technical content, including the Keynote presentations, round tables as well as 1-on-1 meetings, providing multiple opportunities to connect with other participants. FROST8 2021 will end with the traditional workshop style Flow Chemistry Academy where exhibitors can present their equipment in operation.

FROST Conference 2021 will be accessible through a virtual platform too, all lectures will be live streamed, and we added also ePosters to enhance the traditional poster boards. We believe this initiative will promote greater interaction and will have great impact.

We are introducing reduced Registration fees to make this year’s FROST Conference widely accessible. 

The main body of this year’s FROST8 will be the in-person conference. We urge young scientists to submit their results for Posters and plan to attend the event in-person. It will be truly unforgettable; nothing can really replace the in-person experience.

Mission statement

The Flow Chemistry Society (FCS) was formed by approximately 40 dedicated scientists and researchers in the autumn of 2010 in Switzerland with the purpose of providing a self-organizing forum for flow chemists both in the academic and the industrial sector, to increase awareness and educate the professional community of chemists, to stimulate the advancement and to enhance the public appreciation of flow chemistry. Since then, the Society has grown rapidly, receiving recognition both within Europe and internationally.

The FCS’s mission is to stimulate the development of flow chemistry and its integration into everyday practice throughout the world for the benefit and progress of the chemistry community, including pharmaceutical, agro, fine-chemical, petro-chemical, fragrance industries, as well as in green chemistry and novel catalysis research.

In addition, the FCS aims to foster the introduction of a new paradigm to the organic chemistry: to promote the transformation of the present day’s organic synthesis processes into a more rapid continuous set of synthesis operations, which is more compatible with our envisioned sustainable world. The FCS is highly committed to promote the implementation of this pioneering technology into the laboratory practice, to encourage communication between the scientists and making new knowledge widely available.

The first FROST conference was organized in this spirit in 2007 back then by the American Chemical Society Hungarian Chapter. The conference is organized in every second year with growing interest. At every conference a young scientist is honoured with a Poster Award, whose results are innovative and take place in an interesting segment of the field.
At the last day of the three-day long conference the Flow Chemistry Academy is held. It is a workshop, where exhibitors can present their equipment in operation and participants can attend free of charge. It is a great opportunity to share thoughts and experiences among experts and inquirings.
