The Universities of Torino and Padova and

are glad to announce the third


International School on Inorganic Materials

Inorganic materials across space and time


December 2026

Sunday 13th – Tuesday 15th  


Two days to explore inorganic materials across length and time scales, from their synthesis and characterization to the theoretical tools used to understand their structure, properties, and dynamics.

The School will bring together complementary experimental and theoretical perspectives, highlighting how phenomena observed at different spatial and temporal scales contribute to our understanding and design of inorganic materials.

Set in Bardonecchia, in the heart of the Alps, the programme will combine scientific exchange and discussion with time to enjoy the mountains and a relaxed, informal atmosphere.
