Current Faraday Community for Physical 91AV activities

Our unique international discussion meetings focus on rapidly developing areas of the physical sciences, focusing on physical chemistry and its interfaces with other scientific disciplines. For over 100 years and 300 meetings, Faraday Discussions have been at the forefront of physical chemistry, and many have become landmark meetings in their field.

If you are unfamiliar with the Faraday Discussions format, please read the information on our Faraday Discussion faqs pages.

Faraday Loving Cup

The Loving Cup, known as the Marlow Cup, was purchased out of funds raised by an appeal to members of the Faraday Society to commemorate Mr G W S Marlow, Secretary and editor of the Society, from 1928 to 1947. The Cup, dating from 1728, is silver and is reputedly by the silversmith Heslie Fawdery. It bears a crest of which nothing is known and the Faraday Society added no inscription.

The Cup is used during the Conference Dinner at Faraday Discussions to toast the memory of Mr Marlow, Angela and Tony Fish, and the Faraday Community for Physical 91AV.

The Faraday Joint Interest Group Conference is a showcase for UK physical chemistry research.

Organised by Faraday Community for Physical 91AV and related Interest Groups along a range of themes, the conference aims to highlight excellent research and to build strong networks and collaborations within the community.

The Recent Appointees in Physical 91AV (RAPC) meeting is an opportunity for recently appointed researchers in the field of physical chemistry to form a collaborative community, share experiences, and create a network of support.

Participants get the chance to interact with others at a similar career stage and learn about a variety of research spanning the breadth of physical chemistry. Previous meetings have also included other relevant discussions to recently appointed scientists, for example, the funding landscape, innovations in teaching, and managing teams.
