11th International Symposium on Technetium and Rhenium – Science and Utilization

The International Symposium on Technetium and Rhenium – Science and Utilization (ISTR) aims at covering all aspects of Technetium and Rhenium chemistry, from the role of Tc in the nuclear fuel cycle to nuclear medicine applications, extending to catalysis chemistry of Re in the industry. Like the very successful earlier meetings in this series of symposiums (1993 Sendai (Japan), 1996 Moscow (Russia), 1999 Shizuoka (Japan), 2002 Dubna (Russia), 2005 Oarai-Ibaraki (Japan), 2008 Port-Elizabeth (South Africa), 2011 Moscow (Russia), 2014 La Baule (France) and 2018 Moscow (Russia)), the 11th symposium intends to bring together worldleading and junior scientists from the different branches of these research communities.

The following topics will be covered during the Symposium:

• Chemistry of Technetium in the nuclear fuel cycle
• Aquatic chemistry and thermodynamics of Technetium and Rhenium
• Technetium and Rhenium in nuclear medicine
• Radioanalytical chemistry
• Fundamental chemistry of Technetium and Rhenium
• Rhenium in the industry (mining, metallurgy, catalysis...)
