Pre-registration is now open for the 19th European School on Molecular Nanoscience (ESMolNa 2026) and the 3rd European School on Advanced Materials (ESAM 2026), which will be held in Gandia (Valencia, Spain) from 17 to 22 May 2026.

These two international schools will be jointly organised by the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol), Universitat de València, bringing together leading researchers, lecturers and early-career scientists to discuss the latest advances in molecular nanoscience and advanced materials.

The programme is primarily aimed at Master’s and PhD students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, and forms part of the advanced training activities associated with the Master in Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology and the Master in Advanced Materials. The schools will provide an intensive learning environment with lectures delivered by internationally recognised scientists.

As part of the event, the 12th Workshop on 2D Materials (W2DM 2026) will also take place on 21–22 May 2026, with its first day organised jointly with the ESMolNa and ESAM programme.

Among the confirmed invited speakers are:

• Narcis Avarvari (University of Angers–CNRS, France)

• Nazario Martín (Complutense University of Madrid, Spain)

• Reiko Oda (University of Bordeaux, France)

• Nacho Pascual (CIC nanoGUNE, Spain)

• Teófilo Rojo (University of the Basque Country, Spain)

• Michael Shatruk (Florida State University, USA)

• Magda Titirici (Imperial College London, United Kingdom)
  
  
  Participants will also have the opportunity to present their work through oral and flash presentations, encouraging discussion and interaction among students and researchers.
  
  

The pre-registration deadline is 24 March 2026.
