26th North German Doctoral Colloquium (NDDK) 2026 in Göttingen



28.09.–29.09.2026, Göttingen


We warmly invite you to the 26th North German Doctoral Colloquium.


Participation fee: Attendance is free of charge


The NDDK is intended to provide a platform – particularly for doctoral researchers in Inorganic Chemistry and related fields – to present their current research results. This can take the form of talks or posters.


In a relaxed atmosphere, results can also be discussed in personal conversations, new contacts can be made, and existing ones deepened. The aim is to foster closer networking and intensive scientific exchange among doctoral researchers and working groups in inorganic chemistry.


Traditionally, the NDDK brings together universities from the northern German federal states of Bremen, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein. Since 2018 – the year of the NDDK's 20th anniversary – Berlin has also been represented. This year, we again look forward to exciting contributions from a wide range of research areas in inorganic chemistry, such as inorganic molecular and solid-state chemistry, homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, materials science, coordination chemistry, as well as organometallic and element-organic chemistry.


The two-day meeting is based on talks by doctoral researchers (one person per working group), which are discussed by the audience (15+5 min), as well as an extensive poster session with a joint barbecue evening. The talks are also moderated by doctoral researchers. The best contributions will be awarded.


Venue: Georg-August-Universität Göttingen – Faculty of Chemistry, Tammannstrasse, 37077 Göttingen


Contribution Formats


Talks: One talk per working group can be registered. Presentation time: 15 minutes + 5 minutes discussion.


Posters: Posters should be printed in A0 format, portrait orientation. Poster boards and mounting materials will be provided. You are welcome to bring additional visual materials such as models, handouts, or extra slides shown on your tablet or similar device.
