The Annual Scientific Meeting & Workshop provides a platform to connect, share recent advances, and discuss challenges associated with particle-scale investigations through advanced geo-imaging techniques. We aim to foster scientific exchange across disciplines and strengthen collaboration within the scientific community.
Particle Science in Geo-Imaging: Insights into the Material World brings together researchers, students and practitioners exploring the structure, evolution, and function of materials in three and four dimensions. Advances in imaging now allow us to observe matter with remarkable precision, revealing how microstructural architecture governs macroscopic behavior. This meeting highlights emerging opportunities in quantitative 3D and 4D imaging while addressing the challenges of interpreting and integrating increasingly complex datasets.
The relevance of particle-scale understanding reaches well beyond the laboratory. Insights from geo-imaging contribute to sustainable materials design, efficient resource use, and environmental resilience—supporting innovation in energy systems, construction, and soil and rock mechanics. By connecting structure, process, and performance, particle science informs practical solutions to global challenges.
Preliminary programme
Four scientific sessions frame the discussion: Data and Insight, Processes and Mechanisms, Defects and Heterogeneity, and Structure and Evolution, each focusing on a different aspect of material behavior and analysis.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
