COIL 7 will provide an exceptionally stimulating international forum for presentation of commercial and emerging technologies and scientific advancements in the area of ionic liquids.​
Format
The format of the congress will be of a “retreat-style”. Apart from 5 plenary lectures of 30 minutes each, the regular contributions will consist of short oral presentations (15 minutes each) to be delivered in three parallel sessions. Presentation may be accompanied by a poster, to be presented normally during the social hour after dinner. The poster session will allow ample time for questions and answers and informal discussion between presenter and interested participants. Additional free-forum poster presentations will also be invited.
Networking time will be allowed during each early afternoon. This will allow participants to engage in informal discussions and to spend time together enjoying the many beautiful outdoors activities available at Mont Tremblant (hiking, beach time, canoeing, walking around the village, golfing,….).
