A one-day event organised by the Thin Films and Surfaces Group of the Institute of Physics (IOP) and the Durham Institute of Research, Development and Invention (DIRDI), taking place on 16 September 2025 at Durham University. The event aims to bring together researchers and professionals to discuss advances and emerging trends in surfaces, interfaces and thin films. Featuring invited talks, poster sessions, and opportunities for networking and discussion. We anticipate participation from both academia and industry, while students and early-career researchers will be encouraged to present posters on their work. Refreshments and lunch will be provided.
