The 16^th International Conference on Quasicrystals (ICQ16) will be held on 22-27 June 2025 in Nancy, France. This is one of the series following the 1^st workshop in Les Houches, France, the 2^nd in Beijing, China, the 3^rd Meeting in Vista-Hermosa, Mexico, the 4^th Conference in St. Louis, USA, the 5^th in Avignon, France, the 6^th in Tokyo, Japan, the 7^th in Stuttgart, Germany, the 8^th in Bangalore, India, the 9^th in Ames, USA, the 10^th in Zürich, Switzerland, the 11^th in Sapporo, Japan, the 12^th in Cracow, Poland, the 13^th in Kathmandu, Nepal, the 14^th in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, the 15^th in Tel-Aviv, Israel.

We are pleased to invite you to the ICQ16 conference. This event will offer an excellent opportunity for researchers working on quasicrystals and related topics to discuss on emerging research, exchange ideas, establish a plural dialogue and encourage active collaborations with other research groups, hence promoting material science and engineering. This conference will bring together all the best scientists in the world to make a major contribution about the recent developments in the field. Abstracts are invited in all areas of research including (but not limited to) the following topics :

• Formation, growth and phase stability
• Structure and modeling
• Mathematics of quasiperiodic and aperiodic structures
• Physical properties: transport, magnetic, dynamical, mechanical etc.
• Surfaces and overlayers, reactivity, catalysis
• New Frontiers, strongly correlated electron systems, quantum materials
• Related topics: incommensurate/modulated structures, metallic glass, high entropy alloys, complex metallic alloys, cage compounds, clusters etc.
• Metamaterials: polymer, macro molecules, photonic/phononic crystals, oxide etc.
• Applications

The conference will be held in Nancy, a magnificent ducal city located just 90 minutes from Paris and from Luxembourg. Nancy is the French capital of Art Nouveau, with an outstanding collection of 18^th century monuments, including the beautiful royal square Stanislas inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. It is also a lively student city, where you can enjoy a friendly atmosphere with many bars, café terraces, restaurants and museums.

We look forward to welcoming you at ICQ16 in 2025 in Nancy.
