Call for Abstracts
We warmly invite researchers, academics, and industrial practitioners from around the world to submit abstracts for this prestigious international conference on electrostatics. Held every four years since its inception in 1953, the conference provides a unique forum to share the latest advances, exchange ideas, and foster collaborations across the broad and evolving field of electrostatics. We encourage and welcome contributions from all areas of the discipline, including new areas that may not be listed.
As in previous conferences in the series, there will be some sessions built around the themes of presentations made by invited speakers, including the Bill Bright Memorial Lecture, and we encourage submissions that fit within or are closely related to these themes.
