Welcome to the PSI Operando Day webpage!
"Operando" refers to the characterization of functional materials under reaction conditions, with simultaneous measurement of their performance. PSI has many groups at the forefront of using and developing operando methods in various fields of chemistry. This is evident in the Center for Operando Spectroscopy Studies (COSS).
We cordially invite you to the third annual PSI Operando Day.
We are pleased to welcome a renowned speaker: Prof. Andrew Beale from the University College London. PhD students and postdoctoral fellows from various groups will also present their state-of-the-art research using operando methods, offering a glimpse into the diverse activities at PSI.
In addition to the talks, we will be hosting a poster session where participants can present their research and engage in discussions with other attendees. This session will provide an excellent opportunity for networking as well as exchanging ideas in a more interactive setting, and the best poster wins a prize.
Join us as we explore the pivotal role of operando research in shaping the future of energy materials and unraveling environmental phenomena. We look forward to your participation in this exciting exchange of ideas!
Please register by September 18, 2026, to ensure we have enough coffee and lunch for everyone.
