The International Society on Olfaction and Chemical Sensing (ISOCS) has announced that the next edition of the International Symposium on Olfaction and Electronic Nose (ISOEN 2026) will take place from May 17 to 20, 2026, in Chongqing, China.

   ISOEN is a leading international conference focused on artificial olfaction, taste, and related chemical sensing technologies. This event serves as a key forum for scientists, engineers, and industrial stakeholders to share the latest developments in electronic noses, electronic tongues, and related sensor systems aimed at advancing research and applications in diverse fields.

   The 11th Conference on Odours in the Environment, organized by VDI, has just published the provisional program. This conference promises to be an important event for professionals engaged in odour measurement, dispersion modelling, regulation, and mitigation. Scheduled for November 18-19, 2025, at the Wyndham Grand Salzburg Conference Centre in Salzburg, the program features keynote presentations, case studies, workshops, and a special focus on odour dispersion modelling.

   The provisional program for the 11th VDI Conference on Odours in the Environment has now been published. Participants can look forward to an extensive lineup of presentations and discussions covering a wide range of topics such as the comparison of dispersion calculations and immission measurements, legal aspects of odour regulation in Germany and Austria, new VDI guideline developments, and practical applications in real-world settings. The program also includes a special workshop on psychological rhetoric for managing conflict situations, poster presentations, and an industry exhibition.
