Announcement - Borate11 and Phosphate4 Conferences
Location and Organizers for the next Borate and Phosphate Conferences
After a very successful BorateX - PhosphateIII meeting in Corning, the International Advisory Boards have approved a proposal to hold the 2026 joint meeting in Lille, France. The French Glass Society, USTV, will host the meeting and has announced that Gérald Lelong will be Chair of the Conference. The local organizing committee will be chaired by François Mear and Grégory Tricot. Final dates will be decided in the coming months.
Conference Overview
This joint meeting, to be held at the Corning Radisson Hotel, is comprised of two conferences that will run sequentially. On the third day of the meeting there will be a combined day dedicated to borophosphate glasses followed by a conference dinner to mark the close of the Borate Conference and the start of the Phosphate Conference.
The scientific program features a selection of invited lectures, contributed oral presentations and two poster sessions.
This will be the 10th International Conference on Borate Glasses, Crystals and Melts and the 3rd International Conference on Phosphate Materials.
