CIMTEC 2006 to Be Held in Sicily in June www.cimtec-congress.org The 11th International Conference on Modern Materials and Technologies (CIMTEC 2006) will be held in Acireale, Sicily, June 4–9, 2006. Chaired by P. Vincenzini (World Academy of Ceramics) and co-chaired by R.J. Nemanich (International Union of Materials Research Societies, USA) and R. Freer (International Ceramic Federation, U.K.), the conference will feature the 11th International Ceramics Congress, dealing primarily with ceramics, and the 4th Forum on New Materials, which involves a diverse spectrum of advanced inorganic and organic materials. The 11 general sections of the Ceramic Congress will encompass all major aspects of current ceramics research, including fundamentals of structure, property, reaction, and unit processes; corrosion and tribology; powders synthesis and processing; sintering science and technology; nonconventional routes; surface engineering; ceramic composites; joining; structural ceramics; ceramics for electrochemical, chemical, energy, environmental, and

refractory applications; and electric, magnetic, and optical ceramics. The Forum on New Materials encompasses five international conferences: the 3rd International Conference on Mass and Charge Transport in Inorganic Materials; the 5th International Conference on Science and Engineering of Novel Superconductors; the 4th International Conference on Diamond and Other New Carbon Materials; the 7th International Conference on Materials in Clinical Applications; and the 5th International Conference on Advanced Inorganic Fibrous Composites for Structural Applications; as well as three special symposia, Disclosing Materials at Nanoscale, Spin Injection and Transport in Magnetoelectronics, and Biomedical Applications of Nanotechnologies. The more than 400 confirmed invited speakers at the various sections, conferences, and symposia will address the latest advances and emerging research fields. Emphasis will be placed on the most relevant directions for materials research
