silicon

One of the most important scientists working in the field of Silicon Chemistry, Professor Robert C. West working in UW-Madison University celebrates an important anniversary in 2018. We invite you to a meeting in Prague to celebrate this jubilee with him and his friends dealing with Silicon Chemistry as well. We meet at the Prague Center of World Chemical Sciences - at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of CAS, where these important Silicon scientists meet and together will learn about their advances in this interesting field. Scientific lectures on the Silicon Chemistry will take place at the IOCB where lunches and small morning and afternoon snacks will be prepared for you so that you can try the Czech cuisine. The history of Prague will be introduced to you one afternoon and you will visit some of its interesting tourist sites. Prague is one of the most visited tourist towns. We believe, you will have fun here and enjoy all the lectures and other enjoyments.
