LACA-ABCr 2025

We are delighted to invite you to the VII Latin American Crystallographic Association (LACA) Meeting and the XXVII Brazilian Crystallographic Association (ABCr) Meeting, taking place in Fortaleza, Brazil, from October 14–17, 2025. This joint event brings together researchers, students, and professionals from Latin America and around the world to explore the latest advances in crystallography and structural sciences.

Our diverse scientific program includes plenary lectures, keynote talks, thematic microsymposia, and poster sessions covering topics such as structural biology, materials science, pharmaceuticals, quantum crystallography, synchrotron and neutron techniques, and more. A highlight of the event is the LACA-ABCr School from October 13–14, 2025, a pre-meeting initiative designed to provide young scientists with hands-on training and theoretical insights into essential crystallographic methods, fostering the development of the next generation of crystallographers in Latin America.

Set in the vibrant coastal city of Fortaleza—with its stunning beaches, rich culture, and warm hospitality—this meeting offers the perfect backdrop for scientific exchange, networking, and collaboration.

Join us for an inspiring week of science, innovation, and collaboration in one of Brazil’s most beautiful destinations!
