LINXS moves into The Loop – an inaugural conference at Science Village!!!
When: June 17-18, 2025
Where: LINXS, The Loop, Rydbergs torg 4, 224 84 Lund
Description
LINXS, will hold an inaugural conference in its new premises in Science Village on 17-18 June 2025. The programme will host a broad range of high profile speakers including Nobel Laureates and aims to set in place a vision for the scientific landscape over the coming decade: the role that the large facility infrastructures will play and the needs of the wider user community.
Background
LINXS will finally move into The Loop in March 2025, after an extended period of planning, bidding, and negotiations. The new location will place us in purpose-designed premises, adjacent to ESS and MAX IV. It will be amongst the first institutes to arrive on Science Village and the move will mark a very significant development for LINXS activities and operations – just as a wide range of academic centres, research institutes, and companies are planning their moves onto this exciting new science environment.
LINXS operates as an advanced studies institute aimed at maximising the exploitation of state-of-the-art synchrotron and neutron beam facilities, developing synergies between them and promoting interactions with user communities of all types in the local, national and international contexts. Its core mission relates to the development of interdisciplinary science covering science areas over hard matter, soft condensed matter, and life sciences. It funds targeted scientific Themes and attracts world-leading scientists for focused research visits and the creation of international networks that impact well beyond the sum of their parts. It is also strongly committed to several young researchers initiatives that are designed to help stimulate the next generation of researchers and users of research infrastructures.
