About Euromar

Euromar is a subdivision of Groupement Ampere, that organizes annual meetings on the subject of Magnetic Resonance, usually in the first week of July. The meetings are held in different locations within Europe, and cover all aspects of Magnetic Resonance, including NMR, ESR and MRI. This page introduces Euromar, with links to more detailed information.

Prior to 2005, there had been three large European magnetic resonance meetings:
The European Experimental NMR Conference (EENC), a body loosely inspired by the very successful ENC held annually in the USA, which met every 2 years; the Ampere Congress, which held meetings every two years and focused more on physics oriented aspects of magnetic resonance; and the international meeting organized by the British NMR Discussion Group in alternation with EENC, which focused more on chemical aspects. It was agreed to merge the three meetings together and hold a major single annual congresses covering all aspects of magnetic resonance. This unified conferences were to be called Euromar, standing for EUROpean MAgnetic Resonance. Euromar is a subdivision of Groupement Ampere, which means that its finances are held in an Ampere account, and Euromar reports to Ampere. Each EUROMAR conference participant becomes a member of the Ampere society, with the Ampere membership fee included in the conference registration. Euromar has a formal set of Statutes, listed here.

The first joint meeting of the three bodies described above that was held under the name EUROMAR took place in 2005 Veldhoven, The Netherlands.
