CChESMate2022

The meeting Climate Change and Energy Science of Materials (CChESMate) brings together researchers from the U-Lille, Ghent University, University of Kent and KU Leuven with interests in materials science for tackling ongoing society challenges of climate change and clean energy. The event is held under the umbrella of the newly established 3i University Network, and its aim is to spark new collaborations among scientists of the four universities involved.

 The meeting includes the topics of Advanced Characterization and Simulation of Materials, Decarbonised Energy, Biomass, Batteries and Related Energy Storage, Environmental Remediation, Fuel cell, Solar Energy and Light to Chemical Energy Conversion

Keynotes speakers:

  • Pr. Tom Depover (UGent), Evaluating the interaction of hydrogen with the materials' microstructure by advanced characterization
  • Dr. Michael Sluydts (UGent), To be annouced
  • Pr Anna Corrias (UKent), In situ Ce L3 edge HERFD-XANES of Ceria Nanocubes Embedded in a Silica Aerogel
  • Pr Mark Green (UKent), Synthesis and Characterisation of New Functional Materials for Energy Applications
  • Dr. Hervé Vezin (ULille), To be annouced
  • Pr. Fabio Bellot Noronha (ULille), To be annouced
  • Helen Leech (UKent), Funding the cross-border collaborations

Invited speakers:

  • Pr Gavin Montjoy, UKent
  • Dr Donna Arnold, UKent
  • Dr Sven Rogge, UGhent
  • Dr Aurelie Rolle, ULille
  • Pr Christophe Volkringer, ULille
  • Dr Stephane Aloise, ULille
  • Dr Thomas Roland, ULille

The sessions will be organized around one keynote lecture (30’) and short oral presentations (15-20’) offering the opportunity to the research groups to highlight their contributions. The poster sessions will follow to prolongate the discussions. A special session will be dedicated to the presentation of the 3i-network and cross-border funding schemes.

We encourage researchers from all four partners institutions to attend the meeting to enhance interactions and collaborative research on material science for climate change and clean energy. In this spirit, the meeting will prioritize time for both discussions during formal sessions and opportunities for networking outside of this. Visits to the research groups and facilities of the host-institution (ULille) will be organized. Since the key objectives of this meeting is to develop cross-border collaborations, it will take place only in an in person (face to face) mode.

The participation is free but the registration is necessary.

 Looking forward meeting you in Lille
