Overview

We are pleased to announce the inaugural National Facilities User Community Meeting, which will take place at Human Technopole on 4 May 2026.

This full-day event will bring together National Facility Users and Facility Members for scientific exchange, discussion, and networking. It is designed to strengthen our community by creating a space where experiences, ideas, and expertise can be openly shared.

Throughout the day, participants will have the opportunity to present their work, offer insights from their interactions with the National Facilities, and help shape future directions.

The programme will feature talks from Users involved in the 24-PILOT Calls, contributions from HT researchers, and interactive roundtables, which will provide multiple opportunities for dialogue and collaboration.

We look forward to learning more about the science made possible through the National Facilities.

To participate, all attendees are required to submit an abstract for either an oral or poster presentation.

Join us for this opportunity to connect, collaborate, and help define the future of the National Facilities together!
