The registration is currently open for the RheoSANS 2026 Workshop taking place on November 18–19, 2026 at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).

This workshop is a great opportunity for students, postdocs, researchers, and scientists to explore how to investigate the structures of materials under flow by using a rheometer and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) instruments at ORNL. The workshop is organized in collaboration with NCNR, and features hands-on experiments, analysis of 2D RheoSANS data, and lectures on theories and cutting-edge scientific examples. The attendees will be able to engage in discussions with experts in the field.

Travel awards are available to cover the travel cost for some attendees. More details are available at the website: https://conference.sns.gov/event/540/registrations/188/

Important Note on Site Access: While registration for the workshop is free, please note that it does not automatically grant ORNL site access approval.

Because the Department of Energy requires all external guests to be cleared, we highly recommend waiting to book your travel arrangements until you have received official site access approval.
