The conference is at the Convention Centre located in a prime area of Québec City, Canada, surrounded by world‐class hotels and tourist attractions. The historic district of Old Québec designated a world heritage treasure by UNESCO in 1985, is the only fortified city north of Mexico. Québec City is also renowned for its famous joie de vivre, and lively streets with numerous activities.
GOLD 2022 is the 9th edition of the International conference series, following GOLD 2018 in Paris. As a material, gold has experienced renewed interest from the scientific community during these last decades. It started with the field of catalysis by gold nanoparticles, and it is now expanding to booming scientific areas such as homogeneous catalysis, plasmonics, materials sciences, biotechnology, nanotechnology and therapeutic applications. The science of gold has thus become a highly multidisciplinary field.
To keep the scientific community informed and aware of the latest advances in the field of gold for high-technology applications, the Gold 2022 committee organized a series of Webinars on each one of the main scientific topics of the conference (see below). These Webinars have contributed to the organization of the conference and its structuring in the most optimal and dynamic manner.
We are very happy to welcoming you for your next conference in the beautiful City of Québec onsite or virtually!
