MRS Bulletin Volume Organizers guide technical theme topics for 2017 www.mrs.org/bulletin The MRS Bulletin 2017 Volume Organizers, appointed by MRS President Kristi S. Anseth, will guide the development of theme topics for the 2017 volume year. They are Ken Haenen (Hasselt University and IMEC vzw, Belgium), John C. Mauro (Corning Incorporated, USA), Michael S. Strano (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA), and Joyce Y. Wong (Boston University, USA). Ken Haenen is professor and vice dean of the faculty of sciences, and vice director of the Doctoral School for S c i e n c e s and Technology at Hasselt U n i v e r s i t y, Belgium, where he obtained his PhD degree in physics in 2002. He is also a guest professor at IMEC, Belgium. His research interests focus on CVD diamond, including its deposition, optoelectronic characterization, surface functionalization, and diamond-based devices, as part of a broader scope on carbon materials for energy harvesting and conversion. He has been involved in the organization of several international diamond and nanocarbon conferences. Haenen organized MRS symposia on carbon functional interfaces at the 2011 and 2013 MRS Spring Meetings and was co-chair of the 2015 MRS Spring Meeting. He is the editor-in-chief of Diamond and Related Materials, an Editorial Board member of Scientific Reports and Physica Status Solidi, served as guest editor of 11 special issues on diamond and carbon materials in Physica Status Solidi A, and served as a co-guest editor of the June 2014 issue of MRS Bulletin on CVD diamond.

John C. Mauro is senior research manager in glass research at Corning Incorporated, USA. He received his PhD degree in glass science from Alfred University. He is the inventor or co-inventor of several commercial glasses, including Corning Gorilla Glass products. He also developed new models of liquid and glass viscosity, relaxation behavior, and topologically disordered networks. He is the recipient of numerous international awards, including the Weyl International Glass Science Award, the Gottardi Prize, the Sir Alastair Pilkington Award, and the Zachariasen Award. Mauro is the author of over 145 peer-reviewed publications and serves as Specialty Chief Editor of Frontiers in Materials. He is an associate editor of the Journal of The American Ceramic Society and the International Journal of Applied Glass Science, and is an editorial board member for the Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids. Michael S. Strano is the Carbon P. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA. He received his BS degree from Polytechnic University, New York, and PhD degree from the University o f Delaware, both in chemical engineering. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Rice University in chemistry and physics under the guidance of Nobel laureate Richard E. Smalley. From 2003 to 2007, he was an
