he 2015 Materials Research Society (MRS) Spring Meeting will be held April 6–10, 2015, in San Francisco, Calif. 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 five topical clusters of the technical program, encompassing 51 symposia. Energy will include symposia with a focus on emerging silicon technology, photovoltaics, perovskite solar cells, as well as next-generation electrochemical energy storage and conversion systems. Other areas covered include high-capacity anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, advances in solar water splitting,

and the development of oxygen reduction reaction and evolution reaction materials in energy storage and conversion systems. Nanomaterials will cover a wide range of topics, including bioinspired microscale- and nanoscale-machines, nanoscale heat transport, and emerging nongraphene 2D materials. Some symposia will explore the advances in mechanism-enabled design and syntheses of molecules to colloidal compound semiconductor nanocrystals. Other areas covered in this group include nanogenerators and piezotronics, photoactive nanoparticles and nanostructures, semiconductor nanowires and devices, and graphene and carbon nanotubes. Some of the symposia in Electronics and Photonics will focus on the interplay of structure and carrier dynamics in energy-relevant nanomaterials. Other symposia will cover resonant optics, light-matter processes, plasmonics and metamaterials, and quantum photonics. Several symposia in this cluster will cover innovative interconnects/electrodes for advanced devices, reliability and materials issues of semiconductors, and novel materials for advanced optics and photonics. Soft and Biomaterials will include sessions on the foundations of bio/nano interfaces, supramolecular materials, organic bioelectronics, and soft electronics. In addition, there are symposia in this cluster dedicated to exploiting bioinspired self-assembly for the design o
