JUNIOR EUROMAT has reached its 9th birthday. In the framework of this very successful series organised for young materials scientists, with events already biennially held since 1992, the Federation is sponsoring the event from 14-18 July 2008.
JUNIOR EUROMAT offers attractive opportunities to young materials scientists, constituting a wide-ranging tool for the integration in materials science and engineering. The symposium is intended to reflect the informal atmosphere of a summer school.
The symposium will focus primarily on Master\'s and PhD students. There is, however, no limitation on the "categories" and ages of participants. Any professor or industrial representative will be welcome.
For the third time, JUNIOR EUROMAT will be organised as a poster conference, i. e. all the contributions will be on display as posters. But the poster authors are also requested to introduce their poster orally in one of the lecture halls (3 minutes each) using 1-2 transparencies. Subsequently, the authors will be available for further discussion in front of the poster panels. The sessions will be opened by keynote lectures.
