The Curtin Carbon Group, in collaboration with the Australian Carbon Society and Curtin University, is organising a two-day a workshop to bring together Australian carbon scientists.

The workshop will include two Perspective discussion sessions hosted by our guest speakers, and a series of topical forum sessions with plenty of discussion time and flash talks to enable exchange of ideas and promote collaborations.

We invite researchers across all the dimensions of the carbon spectrum to participate: from the sp^2 and sp^3 communities, from nano to bulk, from modeling to laboratory, from academia to industry.

Keep an eye to this website for future updates. Workshop program will be posted soon.
