CPD Conferences

We are pleased to announce the 9th Leeds Microbubble Symposium, which will be held from 17-19^th July, 2023 in our new Sir William Henry Bragg building, at the University of Leeds. The conference will bring together researchers from all over the world to discuss the latest advances in microbubble and nanobubble technology.

We are particularly interested in papers that address the following topics:

* The use of microbubbles /nanobubbles for drug delivery
* The use of microbubbles/nanobubbles for imaging
* The use of microbubbles/nanobubbles for cavitation

The unprecedented demand to develop engineering systems for enhanced sustainability and longevity brings new and emerging challenges for tribological interfaces. To address the global push towards net zero, resilient economies and sustainable development, advances in experimental and computational models and materials degradation mitigation are essential. 

The 48^th Leeds-Lyon Symposium on Tribology invites all the researchers to share their latest work in a stimulating, engaging and friendly environment. We aim to capture the exciting developments that cut across many tribological areas and underpin the development of novel technologies with a significant impact on future sustainable development. Offerings of original research are requested in (but not limited to) the following areas:

• Sustainable and green lubricants
• Novel materials with advanced tribological performance
• Advanced measurement and simulation methods
• Interface life-cycles
• Sustainable interfacial design
• Industrial application of these technologies

If you are registered to attend the Tribology of Friction Brakes Workshop to be held at the University of Leeds on Thursday 8 September, accommodation is available at Storm Jameson Court on the University campus on Thursday 7 September 2023 at £60 single night bed and breakfast, sole occupancy.  Other single night accommodation before and after this date is subject to availability on request, please contact [email protected] direct.
