Student poster award will be given to outstanding poster presentations by students to encourage their academic activities from Nanoscale Horizons, Nanoscale, Journal of Materials Chemistry C, Chemical Science and ChemComm dedicated by the Royal Society of Chemistry, and from Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal.

The SCM2024 program committee has categorized all student poster presentations based on their abstracts into the following two categories:

Category A: All topics related to Spin Chemistry, excluding Quantum Biology and Biotechnology

Category B: Mainly Quantum Biology, Biotechnology and other related Spin Chemistry topics

Students with outstanding poster presentations in Category A will receive awards featuring international journal names dedicated by the Royal Society of Chemistry. Students with outstanding poster presentations in Category B will receive awards from the Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal. The alphabetical prefix ‘A’ or ‘B’ in the poster presentation number corresponds to these respective categories.” Ceremony will be held on Sep. 19 (Thu) from 16:20 before the Closing Remarks.
