The 2nd International Conference on Injury and Illness Prevention in Sport aims to bring together researchers, clinicians, practitioners and students to explore contemporary challenges in sport and exercise medicine.

The meeting is hosted by the UK Collaborating Centre on Injury and Illness Prevention in Sport, which is an IOC Research Centre of Excellence, and offers a great chance to hear about the latest developments in the field, interact with world-leading experts, and discuss translation from research to practice.

The conference is taking place at the University of Bath on 17th and 18th June 2026, with the scientific programme spread over the 2 days. Your ticket includes access to all the sessions and a conference dinner in the city centre on the 17th June, as well as a welcome reception on 16th June, the night before the conference starts.

We warmly welcome you to the historic and picturesque city of Bath for the Third Conference on Engineering Porous Materials at Multiple Scales (EPoMM).

This conference brings together researchers from the diverse field of porous materials, fostering collaboration across the many scales of their study and application. Our aim is to encourage the cross-fertilisation of ideas, methodologies, and potential applications while showcasing advances in fields including renewable energy, gas separation, catalysis, water treatment, electronics, and healthcare.
