Dear researchers,
We are pleased to announce that the 1st International Online Conference on Gels 2025. The conference is organized by the MDPI journal Gels (ISSN: 2310-2861, Impact Factor: 5.0) and will take place online between 3 and 5 December 2025 (Central European Time).
IOCG 2025 invites researchers to contribute original findings, novel ideas, scientific concepts, new technologies, and experiences to address a range of studies in various fields. We will discuss the latest breakthroughs in fundamental science and the technology of gels, such as hierarchical and self-assembled, self-healing, colloidal, polyelectrolyte, smart and stimuli-responsive gels, and their impact on food, agriculture, environment, medicine, and energy sectors. This conference will be a celebration of the contributions of Gels and will feature six awards given for best oral and poster presentations at the conference.
We encourage submissions that cover the following topics:
- The supramolecular structure and properties of gels;
- Hydrogels, organogels, xerogels, and aerogels;
- Gels in agriculture and food;
- Gels in medicine, regenerative medicine, pharmacy, and personal care products;
- Gels in electro-magneto-mechanical devices, 3D printing, and manufacturing;
- Gels in chemical processing, energy, and the environment.
