Program at a Glance

Overview

This Conference serve as a forum of informal exchange of knowledge for scientists from different subject areas where the use, the production, the investigation or the measurements performed making use of isotopes, radionuclides and nuclear radiation are contributing significantly to the technical progress.

ICI conferences have been held since 1995 (every 2-3 years). They are organized by the World Council on Isotopes (WCI) and a participating organization to highlight the importance of nuclear science, medicine, and technology in advancing human health and protection of the environment.

The ICI series over the years heve been hosted in:

1st ICI, Beijing, China, 1995

2nd ICI, Sydney, Australia, 1997

3rd ICI, Vancouver, Canada, 1999

4th ICI, Cape Town, South Africa, 2002

5th ICI, Brussels, Belgium, 2005 (the only European edition to date)

6th ICI, Seoul, Korea, 2008

7th ICI, Moscow, Russia, 2011

8th ICI, Chicago, USA, 2014

9th ICI, Doha, Qatar, 2017

10th ICI, Kuala Lumpur, 2020

11th ICI, Saskatoon, Canada, 2023

Now, nearly two decades after its only European occurrence, the ICI returns to Europe — and for the first time, to Italy.
Florence, a city synonymous with scientific legacy and cultural heritage, is honored to host the 12th edition of ICI.
