Welcome to the 19th Conference on the Migration of Actinides and Fission Products in the Geosphere (Migration '25)
Conference hotel reservation: Book your group rate for 19th International Conference on the Chemistry and Migration Behaviour of Actinides and Fission
An international forum for the timely exchange of scientific information on chemical processes controlling the migration behavior of actinides and fission products in natural aquifer systems with a focus on radiochemistry, thermodynamics, and nuclear waste management.
Join us as we explore the migration of actinides and fission products in the geosphere, and its impact on the environment and society. We look forward to exchanging knowledge, fostering collaborations, and shaping the future of this important topic.
