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.

NIR ON THE GO 2010
Every two-three years in collaboration with ICNIRS the NIR ON THE GO conference offers a unique occasion to gather together people working on NIR applied in field application. Previous meetings were held in Braunschweig (Germany) and Gembluox, (Belgium) and now in the warmer Italy. NIR applications are rapidly moving from labs to fields. What does NIR needs to become the leading technology in monitoring, mapping production of food from the very source? What new sensors and new software are available to develop successful NIR applications? Can we make NIR affordable to any application? Can NIR be a valuable source to increase profitability in the feed/food market? The conference will cover technical and application aspect of this technology with the participation of scientists, sensor and software manufactures, agricultural machinery companies and NIR specialists in different disciplines.

15TH INTERNATIONAL DIFFUSE REFLECTANCE CONFERENCE
The Council for Near Infrared Spectroscopy (CNIRS) invites all interested parties to attend the 15th International Diffuse Reflectance Conference, July 31 - August 6, 2010, 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 27th 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.

15TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON NEAR INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY
The 15th International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy will take place from 13-20 May 2011, hosted by the Rainbow Nation, South Africa. This is the first time ever that the ICNIRS will be hosted on the African continent. We trust the 15th ICNIRS will be attended by approximately 400 delegates from all over the world, comprising manufacturers of NIR equipment, developers of software packages, scientists from all areas of research where NIR spectroscopy is actively applied, as well as users of NIR spectroscopy from various industries such as agriculture, food, pharmaceuticals and petrochemicals.
