The International Council for Near Infrared Spectroscopy
Establish in 1986 to promote the advance of NIR technology


Promoting the science and application of NIR throughout the world

The International Council for Near Infrared Spectroscopy is the global organisation which has as its goals encouraging the development of technical knowledge and practical applications of this spectroscopic technique, widespread dissemination of such knowledge and applications throughout the world and the generation and promulgation of appropriate educational tools for educators.
It aims to achieve these goals through its sponsorship of the biennal International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy and via its associated publications (Journal of Near Infrared Spectroscopy and NIR news). This website is a new, evolving tool for achieving the dissemination and education goals.

14TH INTERNATIONAL DIFFUSE REFLECTANCE CONFERENCE
The Council for Near Infrared Spectroscopy (CNIRS) invites all interested parties to attend the 14th International Diffuse Reflectance Conference, August 2-8, 2008, at Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, USA. This biannual event attracts scientists, engineers, managers, and other technically oriented people from academia, government, and private industry, all having an interest in the subject of light-matter (visible, near-, and mid-IR) interaction in scattering and absorbing media. Commonly known as the "Chambersburg" Conference, this meeting is in its 26th year of operation. If you are a first time comer, welcome! — you will find this conference to be informative, economical, and pleasant. If you are a returning participant, you already have a very good idea of the value of this meeting — welcome back! Loads of information, highly respected peers of the near-infrared spectroscopy community, informal and relaxing environment — this is a conference to wholeheartedly consider in your summer plans.
