The 7th Sino-Thai Symposium on High Energy Physics, Astrophysics, Materials Science and Beyond (STSP2026) will be held in Guilin, China, during October 11-15, 2026 under the organization of Guangxi Normal University (GXNU) and Suranaree University of Technology (SUT).
The cooperation in science and technology between China and Thailand has a long, fruitful, and healthy history. STSP is a series of symposiums organized since 2011, with the aim to strengthen this bilateral relationship by fostering in-depth scientific collaboration in high energy physics, astrophysics, and related fields that align with the common interests of both nations.
The STSP has served as a unique venue for researchers from China and Thailand to exchange knowledge, present cutting-edge results, and build a lasting network among physicists. This 7th edition continues that tradition, providing a platform for new ideas and partnerships.
