INSTR 2026 is a major international instrumentation conference focusing on frontier developments in collider experimental instrumentation, with special emphasis on instrumentation challenges and technological prospects for future colliders. The conference fosters synergy across the particle and nuclear physics communities.
The INSTR series takes place on a triennial basis, alternating with the Vienna Conference on Instrumentation (VCI) and the Pisa Meeting on Advanced Detectors (ELBA). The scientific programme covers collider–detector integration, tracking and vertex detectors, particle identification, calorimetry, muon detectors, electronics, and trigger and data acquisition systems.
