Zusammenfassung: The meeting in Goslar organised by the Center of Interface Science of the universities of Oldenburg, Osnabrück and Bremen, is the second of its kind aiming to bring some of the most outstanding researchers from chemistry and physics together to talk about hot topics in materials science. The main theme will be 'Energy'. Physicists and chemists of the field are welcome to participate. Female students and researchers are particularly encouraged to send in their abstracts. There will be a program for accompanying children.

Zusammenfassung: The 9th International Symposium on Functional π-Electron Systems (f-π-9) will take place on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, from May 23 to 28, 2010.

F-π-9 will follow the success of previous F-π conferences organized in Japan (Osaka in 1989, 1999, and 2006 and Kobe in 1992), USA (Santa Cruz in 1995 and Ithaca in 2004), Germany (Ulm in 2002) and Austria (Graz in 2008). The conference started as the "International Symposium on Functional Dyes”; however, to broaden the scope of the conference and to adjust to developments in academic and industrial research, the name was changed to the "International Symposium on Functional π-Electron Systems" in 2002.

F-π-9 is expected to attract up to 500 participants from all over the world to discuss their new research and results in the context of conjugated polymer/oligomer synthesis, organic semiconductor materials, photovoltaic and electroactive materials and devices, graphene, functional π-systems for therapeutic applications and more. Six plenary speakers will present their latest research along with 35 invited speakers. The program will also include some 84 contributed talks and three poster sessions, which will allow students and others to highlight their recent work.

Zusammenfassung: The School is conceived as a high-level and intensive scientific event focusing on cutting-edge know-how on supramolecular chemistry, materials chemistry and luminescence. It aims at a state-of-the-art training in the form of lectures and consulting sessions for Ph.D. students and young researchers seeking to reinforce their knowledge in these fields. Top experts will deliver lectures and consulting sessions. The school is intended both for people already active in this R&D field, as well as for those new to these areas. Except for the scientific part (lectures and consulting sessions), there will be a parallel evening “soft skills” programme for personal development. A number of social events will be also proposed to relax after scientific sessions, including: bonfire, excursion, guided or individual outdoor activities (kayaking, trekking, horse-riding, biking, etc.).

Zusammenfassung: The third event in the International Symposia on Advancing the Chemical Sciences (ISACS) organised by the RSC. Challenges in Inorganic and Materials Chemistry (ISACS3) will feature a topical programme of eighteen plenary presentations from the leading names in the field. Presentations will provide a state-of-the-art review of current research developments and highlight future challenges and will be supplemented by extensive poster sessions with plenty to time dedicated to networking.

Zusammenfassung: The 2010 International Conference on Optical, Electronic and Electrical Materials (OEEM2010) will be held during August 1-4, 2010 in Kunming, China. This international conference arises from a need for those researchers interested in an international forum of scientists and engineers to cover a wide range of materials and applications in optics, electronics, electrical, photonics and optoelectronics. The purpose of this conference is to provide opportunities for material scientists, researchers, and engineers around the world to present their pioneering works and exchange their ideas with each other.

Zusammenfassung: This major symposium is in honor of the distinguished work and lifetime achievements of Prof. Derek Fray. Professor Fray is a well known figure for his deeply impact in materials extraction and processing world. He is author of almost 400 scientific papers and inventor on approximately 179 patents arising from 62 families of patents. He is Fellow of some of the most prestigious professional societies around the world. Throughout his career his activity has impacted various fields such as non-ferrous, ferrous and nano-scale materials processing; many processing routes including pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, chemical vapor synthesis and processing, recycling; and several investigation techniques such as experimental measurements and physical modeling and simulation. Reflecting this rich activity the scope of this symposium will be based in the equally important three topical areas: principles, technologies and industrial practice with special emphasis to a globally sought clean environment of 21 century. It will include but it is not limited to, non-ferrous metal extraction, processing and sulfide smelting (including light metals, PMG and Ferro alloys); iron and steel production; mineral processing; chemical and metallurgical process reactors; refractory materials; recycling, waste treatment, soil remediation and biotechnologies; chemistry of power and energy generation; composite, hybrid, polymeric, ceramic materials and nanomaterials; value addition and advanced materials; legal and management, and environmental related issues.
