13th International Conference on Chemical Kinetics (ICCK)

https://icck2025.lbl.gov/

Since its first organization in 1985 in Gaithersburg at the National Institute of Standards, the mission of the International Conference on Chemical Kinetics has been to bring together investigators from universities, research laboratories, and industrial organizations to review progress and problems in modeling, theory and experiment related to chemical kinetics. This cross-disciplinary meeting highlights the importance of fundamental understanding of elementary reactions to a full range of chemical investigations and the central role of chemical kinetics in addressing critical technological and environmental issues. The ICCK meetings provide a unique forum to discuss how the same reactive species and reaction motifs manifest under very different reaction conditions (e.g., atmospheric, aqueous, combustion, plasma, in nonaqueous solvents, and on surfaces). The 2025 conference will concentrate on the role of chemical kinetics in enabling a sustainable future, from chemical kinetics and climate change to chemical kinetics for a sustainable energy transition. Technical focus areas will include chemical kinetics and transport at interfaces, scientific machine learning for chemical kinetics, and chemical kinetics of complex systems. The conference will also mark the inauguration of the Wing Tsang Early Career Award in Chemical Kinetics.
