International Symposium on Bioorganometallic Chemistry

Welcome

It is our great pleasure to invite you to the International Symposium on Bioorganometallic Chemistry 2023 (ISBOMC′23), which will take place at Technische Universität Braunschweig from 18-21 September 2023.

The meeting is intended to provide a forum for all aspects of bioorganometallic chemistry. Renowned speakers as well as emerging early career researchers will contribute to the conference and provide an exciting program with the latest research results from the field of bioorganometallic chemistry.

ISBOMC’23 will be the next event in a series of meetings, which started in Paris in 2002 and continued in Zurich, Milan, Missoula, Bochum, Toronto, Vienna, Moscow, York, where the to date last “traditional” in-person ISBOMC had been held in 2019, followed by the first online conference in 2021 (digital ISBOMC’21, Braunschweig) and the “First International Symposium on Bioorganometallic Chemistry – 20 years after” in Paris in 2022.

We are looking forward to meeting you in Braunschweig in September 2023!
