From the 10^th to the 15^th of July, two of our PhD student, Charlotte Grzeszkiewicz and Daniel Görl, had the great opportunity to participate in the Photochemistry Gordon Research Conference at Stonehill College, Easton, located close to Boston, Massachusetts. Their stay included very interesting lectures, poster presentations and discussions. Perfect weather and excellent organization were ideal conditions for meeting an interacting with chemists from all over the world. The students left with an enhanced knowledge of current research concerning photochemistry.
