Events at the Henry Royce Institute

The second edition of “Physics of Life 2025” will take place in Harrogate 24-27 March 2025 to represent and draw together the diverse UK biological physics community.

This NTPMI workshop for Research Technical Professionals will consider the various challenges in handling data in materials science, such as: i) specification of metadata; ii) methods of compression or down-sampling; iii) data storage and retention practices; iv) sharing and tools for access. The idea is to gather perspectives on the above aspects to instigate discussions around working methods and best practices.

In Collaboration with Verder Scientific, this course explores milling, particle characterisation, tube furnaces and hardness testing techniques involved in the fabrication of advanced materials. The content will cover the application of these processes across Royce’s research areas in advanced metals processing, biomedical materials, chemical materials design, and nuclear materials.

Hosted by the British Carbon Group, this event will explore the technical and scientific aspects of carbon research with the potential to be applied to nuclear decommissioning. There is an opportunity for UK researchers to play a key role in emergent technologies, especially those that could be transferred from other industries and applications.

CHEMUK is the UK’s leading trade show supporting the R&D, engineering, sourcing, manufacture, and management of chemicals and formulated products.

This course will provide an introduction to energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis for alloys at the Royce Hub Building in Manchester.

The content will introduce the concepts for the generation of X-rays for alloy analysis and EDS techniques on bulk samples. Participants will cover experimental produres, quantification methods, sample preparation and analysis artefacts. The course aims to develop understanding and guidance for practical experimentation to ensure the collection of high-quality EDS data.

This workshop aims to bring together the local XPS user community to learn how to begin analysing XPS data. Through the demonstration of basic analysis principles, working with training datasets, and user-submitted examples, the content will help users of the university’s XPS facilities develop understanding of best practice approaches to exploring their own data.

The Microscience Microscopy Congress (mmc) will be back in 2025! One of the biggest events of its kind in Europe, mmc2025 incorporating EMAG 2025 will bring you the very best in microscopy, imaging and cytometry from across the globe.

Discover the latest advancements in AI-driven design, manufacturing, and evaluation of composite materials.

AIComp 2025 offers a unique platform for networking, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing to address the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving industry.
