ICUIL conferences provide a venue for discussions among representatives of high-intensity laser facilities and members of user communities, on international collaborative activities such as the development of the next generation of ultrahigh intensity lasers, exploration of new areas of fundamental and applied research, and formation of a global research network for access to advanced facilities by users.

The ICUIL 2026 programme committee calls for abstracts for talks (keynote and invited), oral presentations and posters on the conference topics.

We invite abstracts for talks that relate to the ICUIL 2026 conference topics.
