Scientific Scope of the Conference

Electrochemistry is now progressing in many areas—from energy storage and conversion, electrocatalysis, corrosion, sensing, to bioelectrochemistry and drug development. In all these fields, innovative characterization techniques are vital for better understanding the phenomena and making further advances. In this context, the meeting will provide a platform for knowledge sharing and serve as a valuable opportunity to review recent achievements in these areas quickly. It will also facilitate networking among different sections and divisions of the ISE, especially for members from Central and Eastern Europe.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• In-situ spectroscopies and real-time imaging of electrochemical interfaces
• Time-resolved electrochemical techniques for analyzing transient processes
• Integration of microfluidics and sensors with operando measurements
• Data-driven approaches and modelling of complex interfacial behaviours
• Design and engineering of experimental setups operating in dynamic environments.

The rapid growth of functional electrochemical systems for energy, sensing, catalysis, and environmental technologies increases the need to explore and understand complex, dynamic processes at interfaces, making this task more important than ever.
Therefore, we look forward to contributions that highlight innovative techniques, essential insights, or application-focused research on interfacial electrochemical phenomena.

Presentation Guide

Oral Presentation Instructions
• Presentations must be set up prior to the beginning of the session
• Preferred: Bring your presentation on a memory stick compatible with a PC computer

Alternatively: Personal laptop computers may be used, but you must ensure compatibility with the LCD projector prior to the start of the session. Also bring a memory stick as a backup.
Overhead projectors will not be supplied except upon special request at least one month before the conference and at the speaker’s expense.

Poster Presentation Instructions
Poster presentation size: 90-cm wide × 150-cm high (The A0 portrait format (84.1-cm wide × 118.9-cm high) is recommended for the posters).

Climate

Gdańsk’s climate is relatively continental, characterised by snowy winters and warm summers. In September, Gdańsk is mild and pleasant, with average daytime temperatures around 16 °C, making it ideal for both conference participation and outdoor explorations. Early autumn often brings clear skies and calm weather, aligning with Poland’s “Golden Autumn,” when most of the trees turn gold, red, and brown, creating a truly colorful landscape. Gdańsk experiences moderate annual rainfall, ypically ranging between 540 mm and 570 mm.

Accommodation

Gdańsk offers multiple options for accommodation, from cheap hostels to 5-star hotels and apartments, some of which are located in historical buildings and palaces.

Registration Fee Waiver

The Fee-Waiver Program is intended to facilitate participation at Annual or Topical Meetings by scientifically and/or technically qualified scientists and engineers with financial hardships that may limit their ability to attend. Generally fee-waivers will be awarded to persons from financially disadvantaged countries.

The fee-waiver program will be governed by the following rules:

1. A maximum of 10 waivers of registration fees for the Annual Meeting and 5 waivers for the Topical Meeting may be granted.

2. Selection of recipients is limited to ISE members in good standing. The criteria for selection include scientific merit (based on the submitted abstract and application) and demonstrated financial need. Preference will be accorded to persons from countries recognized by the ISE to be financially disadvantaged.

3. The fee-waiver program will be advertised on the web site of each meeting.

4. An application for fee waiver must be sent to the ISE office no later than 1 month before the deadline for advance (early registration, reduced fee) registration.

5. Waiver applications received after the deadline will not be considered.

6. The waivers are decided by the whole Executive Committee, taking into account the criteria described in point 2 and any other relevant considerations. The decision will be communicated by email to all applicants (successful and unsuccessful) by the ISE Office at least two weeks before the deadline for advance registration.

7. In order to receive the waiver, the successful applicant must pre-register for the conference and pay the registration fee by the early registration date to ensure that an oral or poster presentation is not deleted from the program. The recipient of the waiver will receive reimbursement for the paid registration fee at the conference registration desk. If the recipient is unable to pre-register, which also means forfeiting an oral presentation, the waiver will be provided only when the recipient registers onsite at the conference.

8. The waivers are valid only for the successful applicant and may not be transferred to another participant.

9. No member may obtain waivers for both the Topical Meeting and the Annual Meeting in the same year.

10. Only applications prepared using the Application Form will be considered (Right button click, “Save target as…”).
