International Vanadium Symposium

The International Vanadium Symposium is a biennial international event.[1] The symposium is an interdisciplinary event for a wide range of chemistry researchers that share interest in vanadium research to network and share ideas. The first meeting of the International Vanadium Symposium occurred in 1997 in Cancun, Mexico,[1] and the most recent meeting was in Montevideo, Uruguay in 2018.[2]
