AMSES Becomes Materials Research Society of Japan The Materials Research Society of Japan (MRS-J) is the new name adopted by the Advanced Materials Science and Engineering Society (AMSES), a member society representing Japan in the International Union of Materials Research Societies. The name was approved at the organization's annual General Assembly Meeting held December 13-14,1990 at Kanagawa Science Park. The meeting combined society business with spécial events and the présentation of lectures, several symposia, and a poster session. At the meeting, eight distinguished scientists were recognized as new honorary members of MRS-J: Prof. R.P.H. Chang, Northwestern University, United States; Dr. Min Che Chon, président, Chon International Co. Ltd., Korea; Dr. Byong Sik Jeon, standing adviser, Central Research Institute, Korea Steel Chemical Co. Ltd.,
Korea; Dr. O.C.C. Lin, président, Industrial Technology Research Institute, Taiwan, China; Dr. Kee Hyong Kim, chairman, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Korea; Dr. M.J. Murray, Division of Materials Science and Technology, CSIRO, Australia; Prof. C.N.R. Rao, solid state and structural chemist, Indian Institute of Science, India; Dr. D.S. Yan, former vice président of Academia Sinica, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Academia Sinica, China. In two commemorative lectures, Dr. Kunihiko Takeda, Asahi Chemical Co. Ltd., talked on "Uranium Condensation Technique by Ion Exchange," and Dr. Hachiro Nakanishi, Research Institute for Polymers and Textiles, spoke about the status and future of "Organic Crystals as Sensor Materials." Three symposia focused on advanced
materials, sensor materials, and structural imperfections in Si02-based amorphous materials. Certificates were presented to several outstanding posters from among 70 poster présentations. The 1991 MRS-J officers were introduced: Prof. Shigeyuki Sômiya, président; Prof. Masao Doyama and Prof. Masaki Hasegawa, vice présidents; and Dr. Yoshitaka Agata, secretary and treasurer. Future MRS-J meetings are scheduled for the following dates: Summer Meeting, July 11-12,1991; Annual Meeting, December 12-13, 1991; Summer Meeting, July 910, 1992; Annual Meeting, December 10-11,1992.
