13th International Conference of the African Materials Research Society (AMRS 2026)

December 7 - December 10

We are pleased to announce that Prof. Carlos Silva Acuña has been invited as a speaker at the 13th International Conference of the African Materials Research Society (AMRS 2026).

📍 Location: University of Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya
📅 Conference dates: December 7–10, 2026
📅 Pre‑conference: December 5–6, 2026

At this international event, the Canada Excellence Research Chair (CERC) in Light–Matter Interactions and the Institut Courtois will be actively represented.

AMRS 2026 will bring together leading researchers from across Africa and around the world to explore advances in materials science and innovation, with a focus on their role in driving sustainable development and socio‑economic transformation.

For the CERC, participation in this conference is especially significant. The research presented at AMRS—spanning advanced materials, nanotechnology, and optoelectronic systems—closely aligns with our work in light–matter interactions and quantum materials, reinforcing our commitment to advancing fundamental and applied research in these areas.

This engagement also reflects the CERC’s strong dedication to international collaboration and knowledge exchange. By participating in global scientific platforms such as AMRS, we continue to build partnerships that expand the reach and impact of our research.

Importantly, this event provides a valuable opportunity to advance the CERC’s commitment to diversity and inclusion by engaging with a multicultural scientific community and integrating diverse perspectives into our work. Supporting such exchanges is central to fostering innovation and addressing global scientific challenges.

We look forward to participating in this prestigious conference and contributing to meaningful scientific dialogue.
