Dear colleague,As Chair of the Working Group Chemistry for Cultural Heritage of the European Chemical Society, I am delighted to announce and invite you to attend the 8th Conference on Chemistry for Cultural Heritage in Bled, Slovenia, 8-11 June 2026. (Apologies for cross-posting.)
https://chemch2026.fkkt.uni-lj.si/
As always, the overarching theme is Chemistry for Cultural Heritage. Thus, the conference promotes chemical sciences in the field of understanding, conservation and use of cultural heritage, which includes all typologies of heritage: objects, buildings, landscapes etc. The main objective is to understand the materiality of cultural heritage, its environment and use. Advances in research methodologies, instrumentation and contemporary computational approaches have significantly improved our ability to understand the properties and composition of heritage and archaeological materials, how they respond to their environment or treatments, and how they change with time. Equally important is the interpretation and visualisation of data using data-intensive approaches and AI. Chemistry for Cultural Heritage conferences promote highly interdisciplinary research informed and guided by the needs of the heritage sector.
We are equally excited to announce the call for nominations for the ChemCH2026 awards! We are looking for nominations for the following:
ChemCH Distinguished Scientist Award
ChemCH Early-Stage Scientist Award
