T
he Materials Research Society will hold its 2010 Fall Meeting at the Hynes Convention Center and the Sheraton Boston Hotel in Boston, Mass., November 29–December 3, 2010. 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 49 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 into the following six clusters. Materials for Information Processing covers fundamentals on materials

research applied to photonics, electronics, displays, photovoltaics, and bioelectronics. Materials such as organic semiconductors, diamond, rare-earths, transition metals, doped nitrides, oxides, liquid crystals, and organic–inorganic composites are included in the program. Challenges in large-scale processing of emerging materials or printable devices, as well as low-temperature processing and reliability, will be addressed. Materials for Infrastructure and Mechanical Applications addresses research on materials for mechanical applications at all length scales, including advanced intermetallic alloys, new steel designs, bulk metallic glasses, ceramic, metal and composite materials for nuclear power applications, behavior at microand nanoscales and in harsh environments, microelectromechanical systems, and harnessing instabilities in soft materials. Materials Processing and Device Fabrication focuses on synthesis, fabrication, assembly, and integration of a broad range of materials at different

length scales, including nanowires, hierarchical and composite materials, groupIV semiconductor nanostructures, aerogels and aerogel-inspired materials, boron and boron compounds, artificially aligned crystalline thin films and nanostructures, and group-VIII inorganic materials, with applications in electronic, optoelectronic, nanophotonics, energy, and sensing devices. Materials for Energy covers research related to magnetocalorics and magnetic cooling and novel fuel cell materials and concepts as well as advanced Li batte
