About the scientific programme

ISHC 2024 brought together keynote lectures, oral contributions and posters in the field of homogeneous catalysis, presented over the symposium days at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Trieste.

The scientific programme is organised in three sections of this site: the keynote speaker lineup, the guidelines for abstract submission, and the people behind the event — the organizing and scientific committees.

Attendance was limited to 400 participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Questions about the scientific content of the programme can be addressed to info@ishc2024.com.

Key dates

The XXIII International Symposium on Homogeneous Catalysis took place in Trieste from 21 to 26 July 2024.

Abstract submission deadlines and the remaining important dates were published for the 2024 edition.

The scientific programme of the International Symposium on Homogeneous Catalysis reflects the event’s long tradition of bringing researchers, academics, and industry scientists together to discuss advances in catalysis. Homogeneous catalysis remains a vibrant field in which molecular-level understanding, catalyst design, and innovative methodologies continue to shape sustainable chemistry. The programme at the University of Trieste is structured to encourage exchange between established leaders and emerging scientists, providing a forum where outstanding contributions can be presented and examined in detail.

Keynote lectures, oral contributions, and posters form the core of the symposium days, allowing participants to engage with a broad range of research in homogeneous catalysis. Dedicated presentation sessions offer clear opportunities for authors to share their findings, while ample discussion time fosters interaction among delegates. The scientific programme also includes guidelines for abstract submission, helping contributors prepare materials that meet the standards of the symposium and contribute effectively to its lively scientific dialogue.

The people behind the event are central to the programme’s strength. Organizing and scientific committees work to assemble a balanced and engaging set of contributions, supporting the symposium’s reputation for excellence and collegial exchange. By combining keynote perspectives, focused oral presentations, and poster discussions, the programme creates a collegial atmosphere where scientists can connect, debate current challenges, and inspire new directions in homogeneous catalysis for the years ahead.
