The Royal Microscopical Society (RMS) is proud to present EBSD 2026, a premier scientific meeting dedicated to the technique of Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) and its applications across materials science, geology, and engineering. Held at the University of Manchester—a hub of pioneering research—this conference serves as the essential gathering point for the EBSD community in the UK and internationally.
EBSD has become a cornerstone of microstructural characterization, providing critical data on crystallographic orientation, phase identification, and strain. This upcoming event will explore the latest innovations in the field, including high-resolution EBSD, 3D characterization, and the integration of EBSD with other analytical techniques like EDS and TKD (Transmission Kikuchi Diffraction).
The program is meticulously curated to balance academic rigor with industrial relevance. Attendees can expect a series of invited talks from world-renowned experts, contributed oral presentations, and a vibrant poster session. For early-career researchers and students, EBSD 2026 offers an unparalleled opportunity to showcase their work, receive feedback from veterans in the field, and build a professional network.
Beyond the lecture theater, the event features a dedicated technical exhibition. Leading manufacturers and service providers will showcase the latest hardware and software developments, allowing delegates to experience hands-on demonstrations of the newest detectors and data processing suites. The conference also emphasizes the importance of data analysis and "big data" management, addressing the challenges of processing the vast amounts of information generated by modern high-speed detectors.
Join the RMS in Manchester to discuss the future of diffraction, solve complex microstructural problems, and collaborate on the next generation of microscopy research.
