Syngenta Award
The annual Bristol-Syngenta Award invites a world-leading chemist in synthetic organic chemistry to visit the University of Bristol and Syngenta UK.
This award is organized by a committee of PhD students, and it is generously supported by Syngenta and the Technology Enhanced Chemical Synthesis CDT.
The awardee is invited to deliver two lectures and take part in a student-led Q&A session at the University of Bristol, followed by a lecture at Syngenta UK.
