:
On 30th May 2023, we have organized the 9th Franco-Thai Symposium at Bordeaux INP in relation with the International Research Project (IRP) « ChiraChem » supported by CNRS and the Global League-2023 by PMU-B to further strengthen the fruitful collaboration between France (Prof. Alexander Kuhn, University of Bordeaux & Dr. Gabriel Loget, University of Rennes) and Thailand (Assoc. Prof. Chularat Wattanakit & Prof. Adrian Flood, Vidyasirimedhi Institute of Science and Technology (VISTEC)). First, Prof. Isabelle Gosse, Director of ENSMAC, gave the opening-speech to welcome all guests. Then the two PI partners, Prof. Alexander Kuhn and Assoc. Prof. Chularat Wattanakit explained the importance of the collaboration, past achievement, and the future evolution of the collaboration. During the whole day scientific perspectives regarding chirality and related topics were exposed by researchers from several partners.
 
See you next time in Thailand!!!

Congratulations to Mr. Sorasak Klinyod for receiving this year's Franco-Thai Scholarship 2023. Supporting him for his 2-year study in the double degree program between VISTEC, Thailand and the University of Bordeaux, France, where he will study under the tutelage of Professor Dr. Alexander Kuhn.
