MRS Selects Outstanding Symposium Papers In recognizing proceedings as an important and integral part of Materials Research Society meetings, the chairs of the 2004 MRS Fall Meeting implemented an awards program for the best symposium manuscripts. The chairs—Shefford P. Baker (Cornell University), Julia Hsu (Sandia National Laboratories), Bethanie J.H. Stadler (University of Minnesota), and Richard Vaia (Air Force Research Laboratory)—requested that symposium

organizers select the award recipients based solely on the written manuscripts and not on the oral or poster presentations. Nominations for best papers were made based on both technical content and manuscript quality. No more than 5% from the accepted manuscripts in each proceedings volume could be nominated (Ribbon Award). The best manuscript from among the nominations in each proceedings volume were selected

by the organizers to receive the Trophy Award for Best Symposium Proceedings Paper Award. The contact authors received a $100 award in addition to an invitation from the Journal of Materials Research to submit an article based on their papers. Following is a partial list of award recipients. Papers can be accessed at www.mrs.org/publications/epubs/ proceedings/fall2004.
