39th ECIS UK Colloids 2025 Conference

Synopsis

The annual ECIS conference is the flagship event of the European Colloids and Interface Society (ECIS) with support from SCI's Colloid and Surface Chemistry Group and RSC's Colloid & Interface Science Group. Its 39th edition will be jointly held with the 5th UK Colloid Science Conference in the historical city centre of Bristol on 7th-12th September 2025. The conference topics are broad-ranging, from fundamental studies to innovation-oriented research, providing a stimulating platform for the delegates to present and discuss latest multidisciplinary research and applications in the field of colloid and interface science.

Attendees

The joint conference is expected to attract more than 700 established and early-career scientists from academia and industry – from UK, EU, US, Australia, China, and further afield across the globe.
