  HIGHLIGHTS

RheoMAXESS/AIDA workshop: Where Users Meet Techniques
Members of the rheology community, as well as anyone interested in combined rheological methods, are warmly invited to participate in the upcoming workshop:

'Where users meet techniques'

to be held on 4–6 February 2026 at LINXS – Institute for Advanced Neutron and X-ray Science, Lund (Sweden), with online participation available for most sessions.

This joint RheoMAXESS–AIDA* workshop focuses on advanced rheological testing combined with synchrotron X-ray and neutron scattering, with particular emphasis on experimental opportunities at the MAX IV synchrotron facility and the European Spallation Source (ESS). The programme includes an overview of soft-matter-focused beamlines at MAX IV and ESS, rheology-related experiments, imaging and data-analysis workflows, case studies, and general presentations spanning soft matter, materials and processing, food, and bio/biomedical systems.

Further details and registration information can be found at https://indico.linxs.lu.se/event/642/

For general questions, please contact Prof. Roland Kádár at roland.kadar@chalmers.se.
