It was organized by the Materials Research Society of Serbia (MRS-Serbia) and the Institute of Technical Sciences of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts (ITS SASA), under the auspices of the Federation of European Materials Societies (FEMS) and endorsed by the Materials Research Society (MRS). At the Opening Ceremony, Dragan Uskokovic´, president of MRS-Serbia and director of ITS SASA, gave a welcoming speech to the attendees. Emphasizing the importance of mentoring young re searchers, he said, “For, although the scientific excellence of our research methodologies is of crucial importance, it is the passion for science that all of us—experienced mentors and teachers—have the duty to convey to those that follow our steps. It is the love for our science as much as the content of our knowledge that makes us successful in scientific endeavors.” On behalf of the MRS-Serbia Presidency, Slobodan Milonjic´, vice president of MRS-Serbia, dedicated this Conference to Uskokovic´ in honor of his 65th birthday. Attendees were also greeted by the officer of FEMS, Jan Kusinski; former president of MRS, Rober
