About this position

The FEMS Junior EUROMAT 2026 conference is inviting abstract submissions for the symposium "Electronic, semiconducting, photonic, and quantum materials" within the Functional Materials thematic area. Organised by Assistant Professor Zhilun Lu from the University of Leeds, this event targets early career researchers, scientists, and academics working on advanced materials. The symposium will focus on the design, synthesis, and characterisation of materials for electronics, optoelectronics, and quantum technologies, including semiconductors, 2D materials, and novel photonic structures for next-generation devices.

Junior EUROMAT is one of Europe's premier platforms for emerging materials scientists, offering opportunities for networking, collaboration, and visibility among peers, industry leaders, and academics. The event will take place in Trikala, Thessaly, Greece, from 12-16 July 2026. Researchers working on smart materials, energy systems, functional interfaces, advanced characterisation, and computational breakthroughs are encouraged to submit their abstracts.

To participate, submit your abstract by 15 February 2026 via the provided link. This is an excellent opportunity to present your research, build your professional network, and contribute to the future of functional materials science. No specific funding or scholarship is associated with this call, and eligibility is open to early career researchers in the relevant fields.
