Frontiers of Electron Microscopy and Materials Science

The Frontiers of Electron Microscopy and Materials Science (FEMMS) is a premier conference series dedicated to the application of electron microscopy, particularly transmission electron microscopy (TEM), within the realm of materials science. Since its inception in the late 1980s, FEMMS has evolved to meet the needs of the growing electron microscopy community focused on addressing complex materials science challenges. The conference has expanded its scope to include researchers engaged in various domains such as analytical methodologies, innovative instrumentation, tomography, operando microscopy, and the forefront of ultrafast time-resolved microscopy. This evolution reflects the dynamic nature of the field and the increasing importance of advanced electron microscopy techniques in understanding materials at the atomic level.FEMMS 2026 promises to be an exceptional gathering, featuring approximately 40 invited speakers, alongside a distinguished lecturer, all of whom are esteemed experts, principal investigators, and project leaders recognized globally for their contributions to the field. Attendees can expect to engage with cutting-edge research presentations that delve into recent advancements in ultrafast microscopy, atomic-resolution imaging, in-situ characterization techniques, machine learning applications, and emerging materials analysis. This conference serves as a vital platform for knowledge exchange among leading researchers from premier research institutions, national laboratories, and industry leaders worldwide. It aims not only to highlight significant research breakthroughs but also to foster collaboration and innovation within the electron microscopy and materials science communities.
