European Academy of Sciences
Advancing Scientific Excellence Across Europe and Beyond
Dear colleagues,
many of the most challenging scientific questions emerge “at the boundaries between traditional disciplines.”
The 2026 Kepler Prize workshop embraces this philosophy by bringing together researchers from chemistry, life sciences,
materials science, physics, mathematics, engineering, and computational sciences to explore new scientific territories and future
European collaborative initiatives.
Hosted in Leipzig (Germany), the workshop is jointly organised by Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering (IOM), Leipzig and
Institute of Physical Chemistry (IPC), Polish Academy of Sciences (PAS), Warsaw.
The event is organised under the auspices of the Kepler Prize of the European Academy of Sciences (EurASc) and supported by the
German Research Foundation (DFG).
We look forward to welcoming you to Leipzig for what promises to be an inspiring and stimulating exchange of ideas.
Warm regards,
Kirill Monakhov
(on behalf of the Organizing Committee)
