1st Iberian Workshop on Magnetism
June 29-July 3 | Braga, Portugal
Joint event organised by Nucleo Português de Magnetismo (NPM) with the Club Español de Magnetismo (CEMAG)
An Immersive Week
The 1st Iberian Workshop on Magnetism is a joint scientific event organised by the Núcleo Português de Magnetismo (NPM) and the Club Español de Magnetismo (CEMAG).
The workshop will take place in Braga, from 29 June to 3 July 2026, and is primarily targeted at PhD students and early-career postdoctoral researchers working in magnetism and related fields.
The event aims to foster scientific exchange, networking, and collaboration within the Iberian magnetism community, providing a supportive environment for young researchers to present their work and engage with peers and senior scientists.
