|
It was wonderful to finally meet so many members of the combustion community in person! Thank you to all who made the journey to Vancouver and to those who joined online; our first hybrid symposium had over 1,100 combined participants! |
|
|
|
|
In addition to the superb scientific content of the Symposium, Vancouver offered attendees a host of amazing sights, restaurants, and experiences. We hope everyone was able to take advantage of the opportunities unique to this beautiful city.
The Symposium also allowed us to celebrate the winners of the CI’s most prestigious awards, and to properly honor those recipients of the 38th Symposium awards. Visit the CI website for complete details on all the awardees, including the medal winners and Bernard Lewis Fellowship recipients. Registered attendees will have access to the Chime hosting site for the next 3 months where they can view the award winners as well as the presentations, posters, and lectures.
Planning for the 2024 Symposium in Milan, Italy is already underway, led by an amazing local host team and two experienced and enthusiastic Program Co-Chairs. To aid the CI in their planning and preparation of future symposia, we are asking all attendees to complete the post-symposium survey.
