Dear colleagues,

With the mark of 400 contributions from all over Europe, in all of the 38 topical sessions, passed,

                                                  Condensed Matter in Paris CMD 25 – JMC 14

   is picking up momentum fast. Your peers have already registered, but you too can still be part of

   this large condensed matter physics meeting, that unites CMD 25, the Condensed Matter confe-

   rence of the European Physical Society EPS, and JMC 14, the 14^th “Journées de la Matière

   Condensée” of the French Physical Society SFP.

   From August 24^th to 29^th, Condensed Matter in Paris CMD 25 – JMC 14 is expecting to host more

   than 1000 European Condensed Matter physicists in sunny Paris, and is therefore the place to be.

Submission of abstracts to Condensed Matter in Paris is possible until April 15^th, 2014.

   The program of Condensed Matter in Paris will comprise 6 plenary and 15 semi-plenary invited

   Talks, round table discussions on physics start-ups, the future of physics publishing, and women

   in physics, and, of course, the 38 Mini-colloquia (Topical Sessions).

  You may submit your most recent work to the Mini-colloquium of choice on the conference website,

  http://cmd25jmc14.sciencesconf.org/

   Registration rates have been kept very modest so that all who wish to attend can do so. Moreover,

   extremely advantageous rates are available for (graduate) students and young researchers.

     Please circulate this information

   On behalf of the Program Committee and the Local Organizing Committee, the SFP and the EPS,

   I am looking forward to welcoming you in Paris this summer

      Yours sincerely,

      Kees van der Beek

      Chair, Condensed Matter in Paris CMD25 – JMC14

The official language of Condensed Matter in Paris CMD25 – JMC14 will be English.

Dear EPS members,
Dear EPS friends,

The EPS Condensed Matter Division Europhysics Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Condensed Matter Physics has been presented annually since 1975 by the European Physical Society, and has become one of the most prestigious awards for condensed matter physics in Europe.

The selection committee is pleased to request nominations for the 2014 EPS Condensed Matter Division Europhysics Prize. The ward winners will receive a cash award, as well as an invitation to attend and present their work at the 25th Condensed Matter General Conference (CMD 25) that will take place in Paris France from 24-29 August 2014.
For more information, please see: http://cmd25jmc14.sciencesconf.org/.

The EPS Europhysics Prize is awarded in recognition of a recent work by one or more individuals in the area of physics of condensed matter, specifically work leading to advances in the fields of electronic, electrical and materials engineering which, in the opinion of the Society's selection committee, represents scientific excellence. Recent work is defined to mean completed within 5 years prior to the award. The award may be given for either pure or applied research at the discretion of the Society.

Only complete nominations will be considered. For a nomination to be complete, it must include:

• a complete CV
• a publication list (5 pages maximum)
• an indication of the three most relevant papers to the nomination
• a description of the work justifying the nomination (2 pages maximum)
• a suggested short citation

Nomination may be made online by using the nomination form that can be found here.
The deadline for the receipt of nominations is 31 January 2014.

Nominations may also be made by email by sending all materials in a .zip file to d.lee@eps.org or by regular mail to the address below:
