    nternational Conference to Showcase Innovations in Analytical Techniques

    The 20th European Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry (EWCPS 2025) is set to take place from March 2 to 7, 2025, in Berlin, Germany, offering a hybrid format to accommodate both in-person and online participants. This biennial event continues to be a cornerstone for the plasma spectrochemistry community, fostering the exchange of groundbreaking research and innovative applications in the field.

    Plasma spectrochemistry, which encompasses techniques such as Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry (GD-MS), and Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), is indispensable for elemental and isotopic analysis across a wide range of disciplines. The versatility of these methods supports advancements in areas including environmental monitoring, materials science, and biomedical research.

    A Focus on Scientific Innovation

    EWCPS 2025 promises an engaging scientific program featuring plenary and keynote lectures, specialized technical sessions, and hands-on short courses. Topics of particular focus include:

    Metrology and Quality of Measurement Results: Ensuring accuracy and reliability in analytical results through the use of reference materials and rigorous quality assurance protocols.

    New Instrumentation and Interfaces: Highlighting cutting-edge advancements that enhance sensitivity, precision, and the applicability of plasma spectrochemical methods to complex analytical challenges.

    Solid Sampling Techniques: Delving into methods like Glow Discharge and Electrothermal Vaporization (ETV) for the characterization of solid materials, a critical area for understanding material properties.

    Metals in Medical, Biological, and Clinical Sciences: Investigating the role of metals in health, disease, and pharmaceutical applications, emphasizing trace-level analysis for improved diagnostics and therapeutic monitoring.

    Automation, Digitalization, and Data Assessment: Exploring the integration of digital tools and automated workflows to streamline operations and enhance data interpretation in plasma spectrochemistry laboratories.

    Bridging Academia and Industry

    The conference serves as a unique platform to connect academic researchers, industry professionals, and instrument manufacturers, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge transfer. With dedicated sessions on emerging trends and challenges, EWCPS 2025 aims to address the evolving needs of the scientific community.

    Hands-On Learning Opportunities

    Short courses led by experts will offer participants the chance to deepen their understanding of specialized topics, from fundamental principles to advanced applications. These sessions provide a practical complement to the theoretical discussions in the main conference program.

    A Historic Venue

    The event will be hosted at the Henry Ford Building of Freie Universität Berlin, an iconic location known for its rich history and state-of-the-art facilities. Situated in the vibrant city of Berlin, the conference venue offers easy access to cultural and historical landmarks, further enriching the experience for attendees.
