As the exploration of 2D materials rapidly expands beyond graphene, new opportunities emerge to transform industries from electronics to energy to biotechnology. At the Global Conference on Materials Science and Advanced Manufacturing (MSAM – 2026), we spotlight this pivotal field to ignite groundbreaking discussions among materials scientists, engineers, nanotechnologists, and industry innovators.

2D Materials: Graphene and Beyond focuses on the discovery, synthesis, properties, and applications of atomically thin materials that are reshaping the future of technology.

We invite submissions and expert talks on:

• Next-Generation 2D Materials: Advances beyond graphene—such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), MXenes, borophene, and phosphorene—and their unique mechanical, electronic, and optical properties.

• Scalable Synthesis and Fabrication: Techniques like chemical vapor deposition (CVD), exfoliation, and atomic layer deposition to produce high-quality 2D materials at industrial scale.

• Heterostructures and Interface Engineering: Stacking and combining 2D materials to create multifunctional van der Waals heterostructures for new device paradigms.

• Energy and Environmental Applications: Roles of 2D materials in next-gen batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, solar cells, and environmental remediation systems.

• Biomedical and Healthcare Innovations: 2D materials in biosensors, drug delivery systems, regenerative medicine, and bioelectronics.

• Emerging Device Applications: Flexible electronics, photodetectors, wearable technologies, quantum materials, and spintronic devices powered by 2D materials.

• Challenges in Commercialization: Stability, reproducibility, and environmental safety hurdles for real-world applications.

Whether you are pioneering new synthesis methods, developing innovative applications, or tackling the grand challenges in materials scalability and integration, this session is your opportunity to present cutting-edge research to a global audience of scientists, entrepreneurs, and technologists.

Join us at MSAM – 2026 in Rome to shape the future of atomically thin materials and unlock the next generation of technological breakthroughs.
