fall meeting Meeting Chairs: Kristi Anseth University of Colorado Li-Chyong Chen National Taiwan University Peter Gumbsch University of Karlsruhe Ji-Cheng Zhao The Ohio State University The Materials Research Society will hold its 2009 Fall Meeting at the Hynes Convention Center and the Sheraton Boston Hotel in Boston, Mass., November 30–December 4, 2009. The meeting will include a technical program, tutorials, a plenary session, an awards ceremony, an equipment exhibit, poster sessions, a career center, funding seminars, and other special activities. Symposium proceedings will be published on the MRS Web site, where they will be available free online to MRS members. The increasingly cross-disciplinary worldwide activity on materials research culminates every year in the MRS Fall Meetings. Symposium organizers from around the world have created a program of 50 symposia that addresses leadingedge research and captures the extraordinary progress in materials science and technology, featuring an exciting mix of well-established and popular topics. The symposia are organized in the following five clusters. Information Processing and Sensing covers a broad range of materials, such as high-k dielectric, compound semiconductors, wide-gap semiconductors, multiferroic and ferroelectric, magnetic shape memory alloys, as well as organic spintronic. Challenges in large-scale processing of emerging materials or printable devices, as well as their applications and reliability issues, will be addressed. 756
Nanoscience and Technology addresses process, functionalization, and integration toward electronic, optoelectronic, or photovoltaic devices of nanoparticles, graphene, nanotubes, and nanowires. Besides the science unique to nanoscale structures, including excitons and plasmon resonances, business in nanotechnology will also be featured. Energy and the Environment focuses on materials research related to photovoltaic and solar-cell materials, batteries and fuel cells, hydrogen storage materials, materials for nuclear energy, organic and inorganic materials and devices for energy harvesting and efficient usage, catalysts for energy and the environment, environmentally friendly materials synthesis, and renewable biomaterials and bioenergy. Materials Across the Scales centers on materials modeling and simulation from quantum mechanics to mechanical properties, novel materials characterization techniques, materials in confining systems, and metamaterials. In Health and Biological Materials, synthesis, processing, and applications of biomaterials will be covered in a dynamic range of symposia with a focus on the forefront of responsive materials, regenerative medicine, biointerfaces, nanobiotechnology, biomimetics, micro- and nanoscale processing techniques, nano particle assemblies for imaging and sensing, and biocompatibility of nanomaterials.
