a common interest in the techniques and applications of surface analysis. It meets twice yearly, in January and July, to discuss the latest research and issues of interest to the surface analysis community and to exchange views on current trends. In addition to these regular meetings the group collaborates with other scientific and industrial groups to promote and communicate the vital role played by surface analysis in both industry and academia.<\/p>\n<p>Although the society is based in the UK, membership is open to all and we encourage participants from institutions outside the UK. To join the group, simply register and attend the next meeting.<\/p>\n<p>We are always keen to hear from researchers using surface analytical tools and especially about new advances in techniques and methods.\u00a0 If you are interested in hosting or speaking at one of our meetings, please contact the\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:MorganDJ3@cardiff.ac.uk\">UKSAF Chair<\/a>, or any committee member with an overview\/abstract so this can be considered for future meetings.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uksaf.net\/?page_id=20\">Next Meeting<\/a>: 1st - 2nd July <i>2026 -<\/i><i> University of Ulster (Belfast Campus)<\/i><\/h3>\n<h3>General theme: <span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Surface Analysis combining Imaging and Spectroscopy<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-1705-2\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-1705-2-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-1705-2-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\"><div class=\"rtbs  rtbs_current-meeting\"><div class=\"rtbs_slug\" style=\"display:none\">current-meeting<\/div><div class=\"rtbs_inactive_tab_background\" style=\"display:none\">transparent<\/div><div class=\"rtbs_breakpoint\" style=\"display:none\">600<\/div><div class=\"rtbs_color\" style=\"display:none\">#384be0<\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"rtbs_menu\">\r\n            <ul>\r\n                <li class=\"mobile_toggle\">&zwnj;<\/li><li class=\"current\"><a style=\"background:#384be0\" class=\"active current-meeting-tab-link-0\" href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-0\">Registration Information<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-1\" class=\"current-meeting-tab-link-1\">Programme<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-2\" class=\"current-meeting-tab-link-2\">Accommodation<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-3\" class=\"current-meeting-tab-link-3\">Travel and Venue<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-4\" class=\"current-meeting-tab-link-4\">Social Events<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" data-tab=\"#current-meeting-tab-5\" class=\"current-meeting-tab-link-5\">Sponsors<\/a><\/li>\r\n            <\/ul>\r\n        <\/div><div style=\"border-top:7px solid #384be0;\" id=\"current-meeting-tab-0\" class=\"rtbs_content active\"><h4><strong>Registration can be made online - <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uksaf.net\/?page_id=228\">Click here<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Payment should be in GBP Sterling in advance.
