RSC Inspirational Committee Prize presented to Molecular Spectroscopy Group at Burlington House

The Molecular Spectroscopy Group Committee celebrated their first in-person meeting in more than three years with a Royal Society of Chemistry award.

The group marked their reunion by grabbing a picture with their 2022 RSC Inspirational Committee Prize on the stairs at Burlington House. Earlier that evening they came together to share ideas and plan the 2023 scientific meeting programme.

The programme will include in-person scientific symposia alongside the group’s ongoing, successful online seminar series which has been running since mid-2020 when it was initiated as a result of the pandemic situation. 

But while being productive, the meeting was a welcome opportunity for members to reacquaint themselves with each other in person for the first time since the start of the COVID pandemic.

For some newer committee members, it was their first time meeting their colleagues. With the 2023 schedule coming together nicely, the odds are it will not take so long for the group to join forces again.
