This symposium, which will enter its 22nd edition in 2018, is part of a longstanding series of annual meetings that brings together Belgian organic chemists from both academic institutions and industry to disseminate and to discuss all the various aspects of their discipline in a lively, relaxed, and stimulating environment..

The Merck Organic Chemistry Symposium (MOCS) is an annual two-day symposium that brings together Belgian organic chemists from both the Flemish and French speaking communities. About 150 to 200 academic participants coming from all the Belgian universities take part in this meeting every year at the beginning of December. Represen­tatives from chemical and pharmaceutical companies are also actively involved in the program. Distinguished foreign speakers are invited as guest lecturers to contribute to the high scientific level of the symposium and to stimulate international collaborations and exchanges.

The event is mostly intended for Ph.D. students and postdoctoral fellows who appreciate this great opportunity to present their research as oral communications or as posters, and to share their experience and know-how with fellow researchers from other Belgian universities. It is also a unique opportunity to foster contacts with academic or industrial colleagues and to discuss varied points of view about organic chemistry in a relaxed atmosphere

The scientific program will include four invited lectures, a series of oral communications presented by experienced Ph.D. students or postdoctoral fellows, and two poster sessions. Confirmed invited lecturers include :

  • Prof. Albrecht Berkessel (Universität Köln, Allemagne)
  • Dr. Yoann Coquerel (CNRS, Université Aix-Marseille, France)
  • Dr. Philipp Degenhardt (Merck Chemicals GMBH, Allemagne)
  • Michael Singleton (UCLouvain, Belgique)
