Upcoming Conferences:
We welcome you to the sixth international Public Awareness and Engagement with Research Infrastructures conference, PAERI’26. The event will be hosted by European XFEL in the Hamburg region, Germany. The theme of the conference is Navigating Science Communication in a Shifting Landscape. Registration and abstract submission will start in autumn 2025. The conference will take place 18-20 March 2026. The PAERI’26 venue is on the campus of European XFEL, which is the world’s largest X-ray laser. The 3.4 km long facility generates extremely intense X-ray flashes used by researchers from all over the world to map atomic details of viruses, film chemical reactions, and study processes like those in the interior of planets. We are thrilled to invite you to join us from May 17-22, 2026, at the Centre International Deauville (CID) for a fully in-person event. IPAC is the premier annual gathering for the global accelerator community, bringing together scientists, engineers, and industry professionals from around the world.
