Welcome to ISM9!

The growing field of metallomics signifies more than the study of metals in biological systems. It shows us how the width and depth of the periodic table – inextricably woven into the fabric of life – is a Rosetta Stone for ground-breaking scientific discovery. Metallomics has the power to bridge cross-discipline and sector gaps to foster more effective science, crucial in a world where the need for real solutions to complex human and environmental issues persist.

Our theme for ISM9 is sustainability, addressing how we can have a sustainable research impact through breaking scientific and cultural silos, whilst engaging a wider community to support meaningful and directed collaborations in this evolving field. Four overarching tracks for metals in Human Health, Environmental Health, Emerging Enabling Technologies, and Sustainability & Regeneration will facilitate rich discussions for new horizons in metallomics research among academic and clinical researchers, industry, and the commercial sectors.
