he MRS Bulletin 2019 Volume Organizers, appointed by MRS President Sean Hearne, will guide the development of theme topics for the 2019 volume year. They are Craig B. Arnold (Princeton University, USA), Claus Daniel (Oak Ridge National Laboratory and The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA), Seung Min Jane Han (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, South Korea), and Gabriel Montaño (Northern Arizona University and Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA). Craig B. Arnold is a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton University and is the director of the Princeton Institute for Science and Technology of Materials. His research ranges from basic science to applied technology, with interests in energystorage systems, laser materials processing, and advanced optics. He earned his PhD degree from Harvard University, USA, and was a National Research Council postdoctoral fellow at the US Naval Research Laboratory prior to joining the faculty at Princeton in 2003. His work has been recognized by the Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award and an NSF CAREER Award. He is a Fellow of OSA and SPIE. Arnold volunteered actively for many years on the MRS Public Outreach and Academic Affairs Committees (AAC) in various capacities, including chair of the AAC from 2005 to 2007. In addition, he served as co-chair of a MRS symposium on laser processing of materials and a symposium on oxide thin films for energy applications. Claus Daniel is the director of sustainable transportation at Oak Ridge National

Laboratory (ORNL) and professor at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He manages ORNL’s $90M Sustainable Transportation Program with research foci in electrification, combustion and emission, data science and connected vehicles, and materials for future systems, with a team of approximately 220 people across ORNL. He is a materials scientist by training, with experience in processing, manufacturing, and characterization development for automotive and manufacturing systems. He earned two MS degrees: one from Saarland University, Germany, and the other from the National Polytechnic Institute of Lorraine European School for Materials Science and Engineering, Germany. He earned his PhD degree from Saarland University in collaboration with the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research. Daniel is the editor of the second edition of WileyVCH’s Handbook of Battery Materials, he has published numerous journal publications, and holds several patents. Seung Min Jane Han is an associate professor in the Graduate School of Energy, Environment, Water, and Sustainability at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). She obtained her PhD degree in materials science and engineering in 2006 at Stanford University, USA, and served as an acting assistant professor at Stanford before joining KAIST in 2010. Her research group focuses on understanding the mechanical
