The growing interest in biominerals stems from their<br \/>\nimportance as archives of environmental and physiological information, as<br \/>\nwell as from their potential to inspire the design of novel materials.<\/p>\n<p>What makes the BioMineralia conference unique is its effort to connect<br \/>\nperspectives that are essential for understanding the origin and<br \/>\nfunctioning of biomineralization processes and structures: those<br \/>\ninterpreted from the geological past, observed in modern organisms, and<br \/>\nenvisioned for future bio-inspired technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Topics covered in the conference program include:<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Biomineralization in time (geological) and space (e.g. in relation to<br \/>\nenvironmental conditions), including questions concerning the origin of<br \/>\nbiomineralization and the reliability of environmental and<br \/>\nphysiological signatures recorded in biominerals;<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;The dynamics and mechanisms of biomineralization processes, the<br \/>\ncharacteristics of the environments in which these processes occur, and<br \/>\nthe resulting architecture of biomineral structures;<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Advanced techniques and methodological approaches in<br \/>\nbiomineralization research;<br \/>\n\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;The fabrication of new bio-inspired materials (biomimetics) and the<br \/>\ncurrent frontiers and limits of knowledge.<br \/>\nAll of these issues lie at the intersection of multiple scientific<br \/>\ndisciplines, and are addressed through observational, experimental, and in<br \/>\nsilico approaches.<\/p>\n<p>Many well-known scientists have agreed to give invited talks, as listed at:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/biomineralia.pl\/program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/biomineralia.pl\/program\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Important dates<\/strong><br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Conference dates: 17\u201320 September 2026<br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Registration closes: 30 June 2026<br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Abstract submission deadline: 30 June 2026<br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notification of acceptance: 15 July 2026<\/p>\n<p>The conference is organized by Institute of Paleobiology, Polish Academy<br \/>\nof Sciences, Warsaw, Poland together with Wroc\u0142aw University of Science<br \/>\nand Technology, Poland, and Institute of Physics of the Polish Academy of<br \/>\nSciences, Warsaw, Poland.<\/p>\n<p>The participants will be accommodated at the European Center for<br \/>\nGeological Education (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eceg.uw.edu.pl\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.eceg.uw.edu.pl\/en\/<\/a>), situated near the<br \/>\nmedieval Ch\u0119ciny Castle, right in the heart of an extinct quarry in the<br \/>\nHoly Cross Mountains.
