David gave a talk on the group's recent work on cross-dehydrogenative coupling in organophosphorus chemistry.

We thank our sponsors for supporting this event and the Royal Society of Chemistry in particular for logistical support. Sincere thanks also to Imelda Power and Will Daly for assistance in the running of the event and for taking photos on the day.
