Chemistry Postdoc Symposium 2026
On Thursday 19 February 2026, Warwick Chemistry Postdoc Society (WCPS) presented the biennial Chemistry Postdoctoral Symposium. The all-day event brought together our early career researchers to share their latest findings, exchange ideas, and celebrate emerging talent across our research landscape.
This year’s symposium featured poster presentations and nine engaging talks that showcased postdoctoral work in Chemistry.
In recognition of excellent communication the Royal Society of Chemistry Birmingham and West Midlands Local Section endorsed for the best talks and best posters. The high standard of made voting challenging, highlighting the remarkable calibre of our postdoctoral community.
The symposium once again served as a valuable platform for collaboration, visibility, and professional growth, reinforcing the essential role of early career researchers in shaping the future of chemistry.
