Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the

11th Conference on Fast Field Cycling NMR Relaxometry

which will be organized by the University of Pisa and ICCOM-CNR.

The Conference will take place in the beautiful historical city of Pisa, from Wednesday 5th June to Friday 7th June 2019.

Since the first meeting, which was held in Berlin in 1998, the Fast Field Cycling NMR Relaxometry community has grown in number and interests and we’ve come a long way since then. The past conferences have managed to strengthen the interactions among researchers from different scientific areas (chemists, physicists, engineers, biologists, physicians), which have brought advancements in the theory and the experiment and have extended the fields of application of the technique to a variety of disciplines, as materials science, earth sciences, medicine, just to cite a few.

Building on the success of the previous conferences, the 11th conference aims to stimulate discussion on the development of new experimental methods, easy-to-use data interpretation tools and suitable theoretical models, in order to be able to face issues regarding new societal challenges, as health, food security, clean energy and environment.

The symposium will consist of lectures and poster presentations on technology and instruments, background theory, modelling and applications in different fields. We will also have time for fruitful discussions aiming to provide an opportunity for establishing or strengthening collaborations among the researchers in the field.

The scientific program will be complemented with a visit to the extraordinary Square of Miracles, proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1987,….and we will also enjoy good food and good wine!

So, don’t miss the deadlines:

• Abstract submission April 30, 2019
• Registration May 15, 2019

We are looking forward to meeting you at the conference!

With best wishes,

Lucia Calucci and Marco Geppi
