Dear Colleagues,

Many of you have already registered for the joint meeting of 36th GMS, 7th ISZB, TEMA17 and 14th ISTERH – the International Conference of Trace Elements and Minerals 2022 (ICTEM). We are looking forward to hosting an interesting and inspiring meeting and having all of you here!

We have decided to extend the deadline for early bird registration and abstract submission until March 31st!

The on-site conference will take place in the beautiful city of Aachen. Included in the registration fee is a guided tour through the historical city center, a trip to the “Dreiländereck” where Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany meet, a concert in the historical cathedral, and a gala dinner (all based on availability, spots are limited, first come – first served). Some impressions of Aachen can be found here.

On our homepage you can find a preliminary program (regularly updated), some further information regarding the conference, and the link for the registration homepage. You can also book your accommodation via the registration homepage. Please note: At present you need a “3G” (vaccinated, recovered, or tested) certificate for the stay and the entry to the conference site. Please check new regulations for the entry to Germany regularly.

We have now also included a FAQ section for further information regarding the conference, the registration, and the program. Furthermore, you can find travel information on our homepage.

We hope to welcome many of you here after the long period of online meetings!

Best regards,

Lothar Rink

On behalf of the ICTEM organizing committee
