The 26th iteration of the International Symposium on Spin Physics (SPIN 2025) will be organized by Shandong University and held on September 21-26 at Qingdao Haitian Hotel in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China. The Symposium is one of the pre-eminent venues bringing together theorists and experimentalists in the field of spin physics. It is held every two years, alternating among Asia, Europe, and America.
The conference series has been held jointly since 2000, combining the High Energy Spin Symposia and the Nuclear Polarization Conferences.
The most recent symposia were held in Charlotteville, VA (2008), Jülich, Germany (2010) Dubna, Russia (2012), Beijing, China (2014), Urbana Champaign, IL (2016), Ferrara, Italy (2018) and Matsue, Japan (2021), and Durham, NC (2023).
The organizing committee of SPIN 2025 is chaired by Zuo-tang Liang.
