About TRVS

For more than 30 years, the International Conference on Time Resolved VIbrational Spectroscopy (TRVS) has played a central role in highlighting state-of-the-art progress in understanding, manipulating and driving vibrations in molecular and material dynamics. Whether accessed directly using IR or Raman, or indirectly through electronic spectroscopy, vibrations are structurally-sensitive probes as well as active participants in chemical processes. TRVS provides a forum to exchange the latest theoretical and experimental approaches to understanding and using vibrational dynamics.

This year, we will feature an Early Career TRVS Symposium that will take place on the Sunday (June 13) before the main TRVS meeting starts. Interest in presenting at the Early Career symposium can be indicated in the submission questionnaire.

Remote Connections

The devastating COVID-19 pandemic has kept us away from schools, offices, and our family and friends. Scientific conferences have been a cornerstone of discovery for hundreds of years, and this year we will certainly miss seeing everyone in person in Ann Arbor.

With these challenges and limitations come new opportunities. Besides traditional oral presentations (in Zoom), we will use a new platform for highly interactive poster sessions.

Finally, there is no travel, no lodging, and no registration fee, so the barriers to broad participation are greatly reduced and we are excited to share TRVS with new international colleagues!

Prepare for TRVS

The conference will be held entirely remotely, with oral presentations taking place over Zoom, and poster sessions organized using a separate platform. Please be sure to have the latest version of Zoom, and take some time to familiarize yourself with Gather.

We will post short information videos to help connect to all the TRVS activities.
