broad range of materials systems ranging from oxides and actinides to superconductors. Novel areas will include chemomechanics of energy materials and smart sensor materials, among others. Soft Materials and Biomaterials will cover a wide range of topics including bioelectronics, self-assembly and hybrid materials, bionanotechnology and multifunctional biomaterials. Several symposia will explore the critical issues involved in interfacing biological systems with synthetic materials for regeneration, imaging, cancer therapies, and sensing. Other areas covered in this cluster will include cell-instructive materials, cellular microenvironments and drug delivery, and the biofunctionalization of organic and inorganic materials. The group of symposia in Electronic and Photonic Materials will focus on emergent and traditional materials for electronics and photonics as well as advanced concepts for devices and technology. The symposia will cover technology challenges of traditional materials like Si and also novel materials for end-of-roadmap devices. Emergent research areas like organic electronics, transparent electrodes, inorganic semiconductor nanostructures, or phase-change materials will also be included. Several symposia in this cluster will cover research areas related to nonlinear optics, optical metamaterials, and plasmonics, among others. Nanomaterials will include sessions on the synthesis, characterization, and properties of nanomaterials, with additional symposia devoted to new trends in one- and two-dimensional nanomaterials, ultrasmall clusters, piezotronic

he 2014 Materials Research Society Spring Meeting will be held April 21–25, 2014, in San Francisco, Calif. The spring meetings have grown considerably in recent years, and this year’s meeting looks to be the largest yet. The scientific sessions will include many new and developing areas of materials research as well as some well-established and popular topics. To complement the scientific sessions, tutorials will provide detailed introductions to particularly exciting areas of research, while the exhibit will showcase products of interest to the materials community. The technical meeting and exhibits will be located at the Moscone West Convention Center, San Francisco Marriott Marquis, and Westin San Francisco Market Street. Making up the core of the Meeting are the five topical clusters of the technical program, encompassing 57 symposia. Materials for Energy will include symposia with a focus on photovoltaic and photocatalytic materials, materials for carbon
