Conference

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we cordially invite you to be part of this three-day event that will be held at the Scientific Campus of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice (located in Mestre, mainland of Venice) on 22-24 November 2023. Scientific sessions will be hosted in the Auditorium “D. Mainardi”, located at the Alfa Building of the Scientific Campus. 

The Japanese Association of Inorganic Phosphorous Chemistry (JAIPC) and  the Department of Molecular Sciences and Nanosystems (DSMN) of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice have created a common forum where experts in different research fields and young researchers can discuss face-to-face about novel ideas and projects in a widespread range of topics. Based on the focus ISIPM-11 and FLM2023 respectively deal with, the joint congress will include specialized sessions devoted to recent progress in inorganic phosphate materials as well as to new approaches and strategies for advanced materials synthesis and applications.

We look forward to seeing you in Venice!

ISIPM-11

The Japanese Association of Inorganic Phosphorous Chemistry (JAIPC) organized the first International Symposium on Inorganic Phosphate Materials in 1991 at Tokyo Metropolitan University in Tokyo (Japan). Since then, ISIPM encouraged the basic research and application activities on inorganic phosphate materials in the world. A series of the symposiums from 1st to 10th ISIPM have provided a precious occasion for a collaboration between academic scholars and industrial researchers. Regarding the 11th ISIPM symposium (2023) in Venice, Italy, we hope that this meeting becomes the memorable platform on the ISIPM program for the promotion of fundamental and technological research activities on inorganic phosphate materials. Topics of interest include but are not limited:

  • Basic Science of Phosphates
  • Materials Design and Characterization of Phosphates
  • Boundary Science and Innovative Processing of Phosphates
  • Phosphorus Chemistry and Applications for SDGs
  • Beneficiation, Recovery and Recycling of Phosphates
  • Environmental Science and Green Technology of Phosphates
  • Apatite or Phosphates-Related Biomaterials
  • Phosphates for Energy Materials
  • Phosphates for Ionic and Electronic Conducting Materials
  • Phosphates for Optical Materials
  • Anticorrosion and Catalytic Application of Phosphates
  • Phosphoric Acid and Fertilizers

FLM2023

The International Workshop on Forward-Looking Materials is devoted to the most promising research lines on the design, the preparation, the characterization and the application of innovative smart materials. The event is specifically aimed at young scientists, that will have the possibility to present and discuss their research results, and to establish new relationships for developing future ideas. Therefore post-docs and Phd students are strongly encouraged to propose their oral and poster contributions to the Workshop Program, which will be further enriched by keynote lectures and invited talks from International experts. The workshop will focus on a series of topics including:

  • Bio- and bioinspired materials
  • Electronic and magnetic materials
  • Energy materials
  • Green and renewable materials
  • Low-dimensional quantum materials
  • Multifunctional materials
  • Nanomaterials
  • Optical and photonic materials

Abstracts

Submission procedure

Conference attendees who intend to submit an abstract as Corresponding Author must fill the submission form. Please note that the Call for Abstracts is open July 1-August 31, 2023.

Corresponding Authors are asked to select the symposium (ISIPM-11 or FLM2023) and the specific topic of interest (only for ISIPM-11). Furthermore, the choice of contribution cathegory between invited talk/oral presentation/poster presentation is also due.

Once the abstract has been submitted, the Corresponding Author will receive an email confirmation from the Local Organizing Committee.
Please consider that each Corresponding Author is allowed to submit a maximum of two abstracts.
Final decision about acceptance and presentation form (oral or poster) will be notified by the Local Organizing Committee.

Abstract preparation

For the preparation of the abstract, Corresponding Authors are recommended to use the provided template and to upload it as Ms Word file. The abstract must be written in English and the length is limited to one page in A4 format (210x297 mm). The title should describe the focus of the presentation in no more than 20 words.

Oral presentations

Duration of each talk type (including 2 to 3 minutes for question time):

  • Standard oral presentation: 15 minutes
  • Invited talk: 25 minutes
  • Plenary lecture: 40 minutes

For oral presentations we recommend using the Auditorium's projection system. The system is equipped with a personal computer running recent release of standard software, including Microsoft Office applications and Adobe Acrobat Reader; therefore it is preferable that presentations are in Microsoft PowerPoint or Adobe PDF format.

Before the start of each session, the presentations can be loaded onto the projection system computer via USB flash memory stick under the supervision of the IT technical staff present in the room. Although this solution is strongly recommended, for specific needs speakers can use their own computer for the presentation. In this case, please notify the IT technical staff well in advance. There may be program incompatibilities, format differences and other issues that are difficult to resolve in the presentation time slot, if not completely unsolvable.

Poster presentations

Poster dimensions must be 120 cm high x 90 cm wide maximum. No template is imposed for poster contents. On the day of the poster session, each author will be assigned a panel in advance, where the poster contribution can therefore be placed well before the start of the session.

Proceedings

A Special Issue dedicated to ISIPM-11 will be hosted by Phosphorus Research Bulletin - vol. 40.
Phosphorus Research Bulletin (PRB) is an official journal of Japanese Association of Inorganic Phosphorous Chemistry, which is one of the open-access journals by J-STAGE.

Venue and travel

The conference will be held at the Scientific Campus of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, located in Mestre, via Torino 155. Scientific sessions will be hosted in the Auditorium D. Mainardi, at the Alfa Building, which is the first on the left when entering the Scientific Campus.

Mestre is a district of the municipality of Venice. It sits on the mainland close to the Venetian lagoon, right in front of the historic city islands, to which it is directly connected via a 4 Km rail-road bridge called "Ponte della Libertà". The entire municipality of Venice is served by AVM-ACTV public transport services (buses and trams on the mainland; vaporetto boats on the lagoon), which allow to easily reach all destinations in the area.

Venezia-Mestre train station is the main one in Mestre and is about 2 Km from the Scientific Campus. It is a very important railway hub, having connections with the main Italian cities (Trenitalia), as well as several European destinations. Furthermore, direct connections are active throughout the day with Venezia-Santa Lucia train station, located on the islands of the historic center of Venice.

Marco Polo international airport is located in the northern area of the municipality of Venice, about 10 Km from the Scientific Campus. It is one of the main Italian airports and offers flights to many European metropolitan areas and some long-haul routes to North America, the Middle and Far East. Antonio Canova airport in Treviso is also present in the area, which mainly serves low-cost airlines for Italian and European routes.

In case of reaching the Campus by car, it is possible to park in front of the Alfa building or in the neighborhood.

 

From the airport you can reach Mestre or Venice (Piazzale Roma) by land (on a bus or taxi) or take the water route to Venice (Alilaguna boat or water taxi). 

From the airport you can reach Mestre or Venice (Piazzale Roma) by land (on a bus, train or taxi).

Accomodation

We suggest looking for an accommodation in the area between the Campus and Mestre train station. In this area there are both high-standard hotels and cheaper solutions, and the conference venue can be reached by walk in a maximum of 15 minutes.
