Topic: energy conversion

The conference examines how chirality produces spin-polarized electrons and how those electrons affect chemical reactions, energy conversion, biological electron transfer and quantum devices. Sessions progress from single molecules and junctions to chiral assemblies and interfaces, then consider measurement methods, reproducibility and experimental standards. Ultrafast charge motion, excited-state spin dynamics, topological materials, quantum information and electron–nuclear polarization transfer connect fundamental mechanisms with proposed applications. Attendance applications are reviewed an

Penn Chemistry seeks a tenure-track researcher in energy conversion, energy utilization, energy-related materials or sustainability, particularly through advanced experimental methods. The appointee will develop an externally funded research programme, teach graduate and undergraduate courses, and mentor student researchers. The expected appointment date is 1 July 2027. Applications are open until filled, with review beginning on 1 November 2026.
