About the Event

The ESYMS 2026 – European School for Young Materials Scientists will take place on November 23–24 and aims to bring together young scientists, mainly PhD students, working in the exciting fields of Materials Science, Nanotechnology, Nanoscale Materials, Nanoanalysis, Multi-scale materials characterization, as well as Microscopy.

The School will be organized in close cooperation with the 6th Correlative Materials Characterization Workshop 2026
(CMC) on November 25–26, and all young scientists will be invited to attend the CMC.

In 2026 the special focus will be put on:

• All relevant techniques used for correlative materials characterization;
• Electronic materials and quantum materials;
• Computational and AI-empowered material science.
• General material science topics from metallurgy, ceramics, biomaterials, and beyond.

The contributions shall cover all topics from fundamental research up to technology and product development for the market.

The School will be a two-day live forum that brings together presentations of the PhD works (oral and posters), intensive discussions, and many opportunities for interaction and networking.

All PhD students are welcome to actively contribute to the school by submitting an abstract for a talk or a poster.

Registration is free of charge, but with a limited number of participants.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Dresden, Germany!
