IBERLEEM 2025

by | Apr 14, 2025 | Conference, Event, News, Workshop

Join us for the 1st Spanish meeting on Microscopy with Low-Energy Electrons (IBERLEEM) comprising both low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) as well as photoemission microscopy (PEEM) where we explore cutting-edge techniques for imaging and surface analysis. We have decided to launch these meetings both to meet people that have used such instruments in the past as well as researchers interested in the technique. We believe now it the time to start such meetings given that Spain boasts not one but two low-energy electron microscopes: the one at the Alba synchrotron and the one at the Instituto de Química Física Blas Cabrera.

Important dates:

  • Abstract submission: 15 may to 15 july
  • Acceptance of abstracts: 31 july
  • Registration 15 may to 15 september
  • Conference days: 15-17 october

7th – 10th September 2025

La Rábida (Huelva, Spain)

Welcome to the official website of the 12th International Workshop on Functional Nanocomposites (Nanoworkshop 2025)- (previously known as International Workshop on Metal-Polymer Nanocomposites)  to be held from 7 to 10 September 2025 in La Rábida (Huelva, Spain), headquarters of the International University of Andalusia (UNIA). This is the first time that Nanoworkshop 2025 will be held in Spain. For this reason, it will occur near the Doñana National Park, the largest nature reserve in Europe with over 50,000 hectares and protected areas of high biodiversity.

The workshop aims to bring together materials scientists, physicists, chemists, and engineers from academia and industry to share the latest developments in functional nanocomposites. Topics range from advanced preparation techniques and new material properties to industrial applications and include computer simulations and theoretical work. While the initial focus was on polymer-based nanocomposites, over the years it has been extended to functional nanocomposites in general.

IBERTRIVA 2025

by | Mar 5, 2025 | Event, News

17-18 June 2025. Coimbra, Portugal.

A joint sympoysium of IBERTRIB and RIVA 2025: Uniting Tribology and Vacuum science.

IBERTRIB is a biennial symposium assembling researchers working on Tribology from Spain and Portugal, changing the location between both countries. Similarly, RIVA conference is organised every two years by the Spanish and Portuguese Societies of Vacuum (ASEVA and SOPORVAC).

In the 2025 edition, both meetings, XIII Iberian Conference on Tribology – IBERTRIB 2025 and XIII Iberian Vacuum Conference – RIVA 2025, occur concurrently as the IBERTRIVA2025 event in a charming location, the nice city of Coimbra, organized by the CEMMPRE – Centre for Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Processes at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Coimbra. A special session led by the European Research Network Mobility GT will be held, focusing on the challenges of surfaces and interfaces related to sustainable green mobility. This would be a special opportunity to gather scientists from both communities, academia and industry, sharing their results, advances and new challenges.

El pasado 29 de noviembre, a las 12:00 horas, tuvo lugar la Asamblea General de ASEVA, en la que se aprobaron las actividades previstas para 2024 y 2025, así como el presupuesto para el próximo año.

Durante la reunión, también se trataron modificaciones en la Junta Directiva. Tras la renuncia de Arantzazu Mascaraque como secretaria de ASEVA y miembro de la Junta, la Asamblea expresó su agradecimiento por su invalorable labor y dedicación durante su gestión.

En su lugar, se aprobó la incorporación de Lidia Martínez como nueva secretaria de ASEVA. Lidia cuenta con una destacada trayectoria en el ámbito de la ciencia y la tecnología, y su incorporación representa una gran oportunidad para impulsar el trabajo colaborativo y fortalecer los objetivos de la asociación.

Asimismo, el cargo vacante en la Junta Directiva será ocupado por Dimas G. de Oteyza, quien aportará su experiencia y compromiso al desarrollo de ASEVA.

Desde ASEVA, agradecemos a todos los miembros por su participación y colaboración en esta Asamblea, que marca el rumbo de nuestras actividades futuras.

¡Seguimos trabajando juntos por el avance de la ciencia del vacío!
