Physics@Veldhoven is a large congress that provides a topical overview of physics in the Netherlands. It is organised by NWO, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research, and takes place each year in January. Traditionally, young researchers are given the chance to present themselves and their work alongside renowned names from the Dutch and international physics community. The programme covers Light and matter, Atomic, molecular and optical physics, Nanoscience and nanotechnology, Statistical physics and Soft condensed matter, Surfaces and interfaces, Physics of fluids, Subatomic physics, Plasma and fusion physics, and Strongly correlated systems.
At Physics@Veldhoven 2017, NWO Chair Stan Gielen awarded the FOM prizes 2016 to three top scientists. Julija Bagdonaitė received the FOM Physics Thesis Award, Slava Medvedev received the FOM Valorisation Chapter Prize and the FOM Valorisation Prize was received by Ekkes Brück.
