Dear all,
The 24th International Radiocarbon Conference will be held together with the 10th 14C & Archaeology Conference in Zurich, Switzerland from September 11 to 16, 2022. The Corona pandemic has significantly disrupted the Radiocarbon conference series calendar. Originally planned for spring 2021, in Israel, the 24th Radiocarbon Conference was postponed, and the organizers agreed to merge the event with the upcoming 10th 14C & Archeology Conference which was planned for fall 2022 in Zurich.
It is our pleasure to invite you to this joint conference, and we are looking forward to bringing together the radiocarbon community in person again. After a quite long period with limited personal contacts, we are happy to promote personal academic cooperation and exchange of scientific ideas.
Please visit our website for more detailed and always up to date information on the joint conference.
Abstract submission will be possible by the end of April – you will be notified as soon as it is online.
Scientific Program:
The primary focus during the first two conference days will be on archaeology to attract participants active in traditional dating applications and technologies. The following days will be devoted to more general fields with radiocarbon applications and technical as well as methodical developments. We also encourage participants who deal with other long-lived radionuclides and their applications to join the conference. There will be plenary sessions every morning followed by parallel sessions later in the day. Prior to the main conference, we plan to organize workshops which will take place at the ETH campus Hönggerberg, where also the AMS laboratory is located.
Venue and Accommodation:
The joint conference will take place at the main Building of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETHZ), very close to downtown Zurich. Lecture halls and infrastructure of ETHZ will be available offering a comfortable environment for presenters and audience supported by modern electronic equipment. For hotel accommodation we refer to common online booking platforms. In case you have problems to find a suitable hotel, or have any other questions regarding the conference please contact us at radiocarbon24@ethz.ch.
