The Queen’s University International Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society (Q-ACS) is excited to host the first-ever Bader Symposium on Monday, November 18th, 2024 at The Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts to celebrate this year as the 100th birthday of the late Dr. Alfred R. Bader. In addition to founding the Aldrich Chemical Company, which through a series of mergers became MilliporeSigma, Dr. Bader was a transformative benefactor of Chemistry, The Arts, and philanthropy worldwide. 

This free-of-charge symposium will feature keynote and plenary speakers from Chemistry and The Arts, the Bader Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar Lectures, a multidisciplinary poster session, and an artistic/musical exhibition. We look forward to seeing you there!  

The dress code is business casual.
