Synchrotron Environmental Science (SES-2025) Symposium
The Synchrotron Environmental Science (SES) Symposium will be held at Stony Brook University from September 29 – October 1, 2025. This symposium will unite leading experts in synchrotron research and environmental science to foster dialogue, collaboration, and innovation. The 8th SES Symposium focuses on the complex interplay amongst and between hydrologic, geomorphic, geochemical, and biological processes and how this...
Upcoming APS/SEES School on CONUSS/PHOENIX
Webinar: Nuclear Resonant Spectroscopy at the APS
Nuclear Resonant Spectroscopy (NRS) takes advantage of low-energy nuclear resonances found in specific isotopes, such as Fe-57, to probe the local chemical environment and atomic vibrational dynamics within materials that contain these isotopes. This presentation will highlight NRS capabilities at the Advanced Photon Source and detail quantities that can be measured using this method that would be of interest to...
2025 SEES-ISRD Joint Meeting
Held jointly at the University of Chicago on August 11-13, 2025. Keynote speakers will discuss topics in rock and mineral deformation and rheological properties in Earth, and there will be a poster session with a broad scientific focus.
Upcoming workshop on soft and tender STXM and nanoprobe techniques

SCCM 2025 Abstract Submission
We are excited to see the Static, Dynamic, and Shock high-pressure communities merge their sciences this year at the SCCM 2025: 24th International Conference on the Science of Compression in Condensed Matter (Washington DC, June 22-27). We highly encourage your participation in this unique event and look forward to receiving your abstract contributions in one of the sessions or masterclasses that we organize: 1b -...
Abstract Submission Open for Goldschmidt 2025
We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to our SEES organized session (09f) at Goldschmidt 2025. In this session, we will explore the application of micro- and nanoscale imaging and spectroscopic techniques such as confocal Raman microscopy, scanning probe microscopy, and synchrotron-based methods to study complex biogeochemical processes, microbial interactions, and mineral weathering. The submission...
