The course covers applications from biology and medicine to chemistry and physics, such as high-throughput chemotyping, chemical imaging of biological tissues, surface-sensitive measurements of minerals, and the analysis of compositional changes in a range of materials from bacteria to semiconductors.Course Instructor: <a href="/link/20eb3ea6a76747f68d4c6a68cce4874e.aspx?epslanguage=en">András Gorzsás</a>, Manager of the <a href="/link/adff283210fd48318dc7a3411e8b92ef.aspx?epslanguage=en">Vibrational Spectroscopy Core Facility</a>.Find more information and register on the <a href="/link/71c4bd6b64f24ef097b56990202a1504.aspx?epslanguage=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course homepage</a>.Registration deadline:  13 October 2025. Glasburen, Stora Fokusrummet (KB.F3.01) and ViSp Core Facility, KBC-buildingCourse/en/events/vibrational-spectroscopy-user-licence-course-fall-2025_12137579/2025-10-27T09:00:00+01:002025-10-31T16:00:00+01:00/en/events/did-you-ever-listen-to-space-a-presentation-about-sound-data-and-space-weather_12146161/Did you ever listen to space? A presentation about sound, data, and space weatherWelcome to a fascinating presentation with two experts in space data, space weather, and sonification.Wed, 29 Oct 2025 19:45:00 +0100How can we listen to space – when there is no sound out there?Through sonification, an innovative method of converting data from satellites and measuring instruments into sound, we gain a new and physical experience of space science and space weather.Welcome to a fascinating presentation with two experts in space data, space weather, and sonification: Alice Wallner (IRF) and Klaus Nielsen (DTU Space, Denmark), moderated by Gabriella Stenberg Wieser (IRF and from Fråga Lund).The event is open to the public – from 12 years old – and is part of European Space Weather Week 2025 in Umeå.Date?

This conference aims to foster collaborations between different departments and research centres affiliated with the Chemical Biological Centre, KBC, including departments from two faculties of Umeå University and the Faculty of Forest Sciences, SLU.The scientific theme this year will be "Bridging Scales: from Quantum to Cosmos", providing a framework for discussions on different scales of scientific research and interpreting and using research results across scales and dimensions. We also wanted to highlight that this year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ 2025).We encourage PhD students to present their projects in the form of short, 2-minute “elevator talks” and posters.Find more information, the preliminary programme, and register (by 28 October at the latest) at <a href="/link/e578cbc1f0ab444bae8e84840cae2a86.aspx?epslanguage=en">/en/chemical-biological-centre/kbc_events/kbc-days-2025/</a> Note! Information about and pre-registration for the various activities organised in the framework of this year's KBC DAYS will be available on the KBC DAYS 2025 webpage soon. Stay tuned for the email and digital screen announcements!The registration is now open for the KBC Ping Pong Tournament. Register (by 6 October) for this friendly competition that will be running throughout October, meet colleagues, have fun, and maybe even win a trophy!
