Topics for literature seminars

Please note: title in grey means that the paper have been presented earlier. Name of the speaker in the right column means the paper is "booked" by the person for the future presenation. As usually, there is a possibility to present a paper of your own choice. This must be an original publication (not a review!) with top-level results from any area of organic chemistry or material science.

ALL papers from the list are to be found in the PARTAGE folder of computer CURIE (as pdf) and can thus be accessed via our local net. If you face some problems with accessing it, let me know and I will sent the paper by e-mail.
