The USTVerre are excited to host the two conferences in France, bringing together two closely connected scientific communities. While each focuses on different aspects of glass science and technology, there is significant overlap in topics of interest, fostering valuable discussions and collaborations. The scientific programme features a selection of invited lectures, contributed oral presentations and poster sessions related to energy, healthcare, optical and data storage materials, structure–property relationships, fundamentals of the glassy state, novel materials, and industrial applications.
The 2026 edition of the Borate Phosphate Conference pays tribute to two distinguished researchers Prof. Hellmut Eckert and Prof. Dick Brow whose outstanding contributions have greatly advanced their respective fields.
