The International Conference on Basic Science and Its Application 2026

Advancing Frontier Sciences for Environmental and Human Health toward Sustainable Development

About the Conference

Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences – Universitas Andalas

The International Conference on Basic Science and Its Applications (ICBSA) 2026 is an international scientific forum fully funded by the EQUITY (Excellence in Quantitative, Innovation, and Technology) Program and hosted by the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA), Universitas Andalas, Indonesia.

As an international conference, ICBSA brings together researchers, academics, and practitioners from around the world to present and discuss advances in basic sciences and their applications in addressing global sustainability challenges. The conference highlights the strategic role of fundamental research as the backbone of innovation, evidence-based decision-making, and sustainable technological development.

ICBSA 2026 is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a primary focus on United Nations SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy). The conference emphasizes advancing research and innovation that promote better health outcomes, strengthen well-being, and support the development and implementation of accessible, reliable, and sustainable clean energy solutions for communities worldwide. These goals are addressed through interdisciplinary research across biological sciences, chemical sciences, mathematical sciences, physical sciences, and environmental systems.

Through keynote lectures, invited talks, and rigorously peer-reviewed paper presentations, ICBSA 2026 showcases how research in basic sciences contributes to food security, human health, clean water technologies, renewable energy, climate resilience, ecosystem conservation, and sustainable urban and natural environments. The conference also serves as a platform for fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and strengthening long-term international research collaboration.
