The International Workshop on Advanced and In Situ Microscopies of Functional Nanomaterials and Devices (IAMNano) 2025 will be held in at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden, from August 20th to 22nd, 2025. IAMNano serves as a venue for researchers and other specialists in different areas of microscopy, materials science, and materials engineering to discuss and exchange their latest findings and ideas with each other. It was first held in Krakow, Poland (2012), and subsequent workshops were hosted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2014), Hamburg, Germany (2015), Port Elizabeth, South Africa (2016), Singapore (2017), Hamburg, Germany (2018), Düsseldorf, Germany (2019) and Matsue, Japan (2023). This year’s IAMNano will be the 9th in the series. In my experience this workshop always provides an excellent opportunity to move the field forward, promoting scientific advances and international collaboration in a congenial atmosphere.
