“La 54ème Discussion Heyrovský (https://www.jh-inst.cas.cz/scientific-meetings/54th-heyrovskydiscussion) s’est tenue du 18 au 22 juin 2023 dans le château de Třešť, près de Prague, et a été organisée par les membres de l’Institut Heyrovský de cette même ville. Le sujet de cette discussion était « Photo-Spectroélectrochimie Moléculaire, Mécanismes et Electrosynthèse ». En tant que doctorante en électrochimie moléculaire, cette conférence a été l’occasion de présenter mes travaux de recherche pour la première fois face à une communauté d’électrochimistes. En plus d’avoir donné lieu à des questionnements très pertinents sur mes résultats, j’ai été confrontée à une grande variété de sujets, ce qui m’a offert une vision globale de la recherche actuelle en électrochimie. Ma deuxième année de thèse touchant à sa fin, ce congrès m’a aussi permis d’agrandir mon réseau et de commencer à réfléchir à de potentiels laboratoires d’accueil pour mon stage postdoctoral. Je remercie la subdivision Electrochimie de la Société Chimique de France de m’avoir soutenue pour vivre ce fructueux moment d’échange en éléctrochimie.”

“The 54th Heyrovský Discussion(https://www.jh-inst.cas.cz/scientific-meetings/54th-heyrovskydiscussion) was held from June 18 to 22, 2023 in Třešť Castle, near Prague, and was organized by members of the Heyrovský Institute in the same city. The topic of this discussion was “Molecular PhotoSpectroelectrochemistry, Mechanisms and Electrosynthesis”. As a PhD student in  molecular electrochemistry, this conference was an opportunity to present my research for the first time to a community of electrochemists. As well as raising some very pertinent questions about my results, I was confronted with a wide variety of subjects, which gave me a global view of current research in electrochemistry. As I approach the end of my second year of PhD, this conference also allowed me to expand my network and start thinking about potential host laboratories for my post-doctoral internship. I would like to thank the Electrochemistry subdivision of the Société Chimique de France for supporting me in this fruitful moment of exchange in electrochemistry.“

I would like to thank deeply the Societé Chimique de France (Sub-division Electrochimie) for giving me the financial aid of 300 euro to cover at least my accomodation during my stay in Lyon.
The ‘’International Society of Electrochemistry’’ conference was more than amazing. I had the chance to attend great plenary and keynote speakers from all over the world and to discuss science and chemistry covering different fields of electrochemistry. I am glad to have met great and giant researchers in the field of electrochemistry, whom I am always following and reading their work like Christian Amatore. In this conference I had the chance to perform an oral presentation in front of an audience which includes researchers that I couldn’t have imagined to talk in front of them. I have built scientific connections with researchers which I believe will enrich my future career. Moreover I have met great friends and spent beautiful nights in the amazing city of Lyon.

The Electrocatalysis summer school (http://elcats2023.unimi.it/) was organized in the Mariapolis Centre in Trento, Italy from the 10^th to 15^th of September, 2023 by Università degli Studi di Milano professors. Our educational program covered a lot of important topics and concepts on the electrocatalytic branch such as electrochemical kinetics, processes and interfaces in electrocatalysis, and so on. We also had an opportunity to meet industrial company representatives and discover how the development of catalysts is performed in De Nora. This thematic school brought me a deep understanding of the interfacial processes from a kinetic and thermodynamic point of view. The gained knowledge will help to improve the performance of obtained electroctrocatalysts since electrocatalysis and nanocatalysts development is at the heart of my PhD project. Also, it was a great opportunity to meet young researchers from all over the world who work in the same scientific branch. Sharing ideas and discussing learned material with students created a motivational environment, which was a good point for my professional project and brought new objectives for my career. I am very thankful to the Electrochemistry subdivision of the Société Chimique de France for supporting me in going to this unique summer school.

The common scientific days of GDR Solar Fuels and Photo Electro Stimulation (https://solar-fuels-pes.sciencesconf.org/) were held from the 24^th to the 26^th of June 2024 in Grenoble. These three days aimed to gather the communities of solar fuels and of photoelectron stimulation. The synergy of these two complementary topics brought a real dynamism with excellent presentations leading to a lot of questions for each speaker. This conference was the opportunity to present a part of my PhD results about the “photoinduced ECL: a tool for imaging charge transfer at water-splitting photoanodes” that targeted these two communities. Hence, I could discuss with high-level scientists from EPFL, help a PhD candidate in her research with a concrete application of my work, and even get a postdoc offer. Since I am already a postdoc associate, the topics that have been presented brought me a link between my PhD studies and my new job. I was thus able to get new ideas and to learn more about  electrolysers and fuel cells that are important topics in my new project. I am grateful to the Electrochemistry Subdivision of the Société Chimique de France for supporting my participation to this conference that is the best that I could attend so far.

Les journées scientifiques communes du GDR Carburants Solaires et Photo Electro Stimulation (https://solar-fuels-pes.sciencesconf.org/) se sont déroulées du 24 au 26 juin 2024 à Grenoble. Ces trois jours avaient pour objectif de réunir les communautés des combustibles solaires et de la stimulation photoélectronique. La synergie de ces deux sujets complémentaires a apporté un réel dynamisme avec d’excellentes présentations qui ont donné lieu à de nombreuses questions pour chaque intervenant. Cette conférence a été pour moi l’occasion de présenter une partie de mes résultats de thèse sur « l’ECL photoinduite : un outil d’imagerie du transfert de charge au niveau des photoanodes pour une application dans la séparation de l’eau » qui ciblait ces deux communautés. Ainsi, j’ai pu discuter avec des scientifiques de haut niveau issus de l’EPFL, aider une doctorante dans ses recherches en proposant une application concrète de mes travaux, et même obtenir une offre de postdoc. Etant déjà postdoctorante, les sujets qui ont été présentés m’ont apporté un lien entre mes études doctorales et mon nouveau sujet de recherche. En effet, j’ai pu trouver de nouvelles idées et en apprendre davantage sur l’électrolyseur et la pile à combustible qui sont des sujets importants dans mon nouveau projet. Je remercie la Subdivision Electrochimie de la Société Chimique de France pour avoir soutenu ma participation à cette conférence, qui est la meilleure à laquelle j’ai pu assister jusqu’à présent.

The Matafured meeting is a biennial international conference focused on (electro)chemical sensing. This year, it took place from the 16^th to the 21^st of June (2024), in Visegrad, Hungary.

This single-session conference covers a wide range of topics in photochemistry and electrochemistry. The presentations and discussions spanned from fundamental mechanistic and kinetic research, stochastic electrochemistry, the development of new approaches to sensing, to the fabrication of robust sensing platforms for industrial applications. This broad scope provided me with a comprehensive perspective on current trends in electrochemistry and photochemistry and sparked new research ideas. Furthermore this conference was an invaluable opportunity for me to present our research and receive insightful feedback, while participating in scientific discussions significantly deepened my understanding of various topics. Finally, one of the most rewarding aspects of this conference was the opportunity to connect with numerous international researchers from diverse fields, thereby expanding my research network.
