The program will cover many aspects of flow chemistry including:
- Acceleration of the synthesis of organic compounds, using until, now unrealizable reaction conditions
- H-Cube User Experiences
- Lab automation
- Rapid scale-up from mg to kg quantities
- Practical flow organic synthesis
The seminar will include a series of key presentations from a mixture of academia and industry in the morning followed by a practical flow session in the afternoon.
