EFI-MMS2026

The IFToMM Young Faculty Group, as one of the four IFToMM Cross-Disciplinary groups (CDGs), is a collective of early-career academics working to further this mission. By bringing together young professors and lecturers from around the world, the group seeks to explore how mechanism and machine science can contribute to solving future academic and technological challenges.
After a successful first International Symposium of the IFToMM Young Faculty Group (YFG) in 2023, the YFG launches this Second Edition of the IFToMM International Symposium on Emerging Fields in Mechanism and Machine Science
(EFIMMS 2026) as first joint symposium together with the Cross Disciplinary Groups “IFToMM Women’s Group” (WG) and “IFToMM Graduate Student Group” (GGG) for a stronger global reach. The joint symposium aims at bringing together young researchers and students from the whole spectrum of disciplines covered by IFToMM, offering a focused and engaging environment for participants to present and publish their work, explore collaborative opportunities, and discuss emerging trends and challenges in the field, and also inviting experienced researchers for interaction with the next generations.
