Innovations in Design, Fabrication and Application of Polymeric Materials

The Polymers Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) provides a unique opportunity for graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience to present and discuss high quality, unpublished research focused on the synthesis, characterization, and application of polymeric materials. The meeting (June 8-9) will directly precede the Polymers Gordon Research Conference (June 9-14) on the campus of Mt. Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts, USA. Those applying to the GRS are strongly encouraged to submit an additional application to the Polymers GRC.

The seminar will include poster sessions and a select number of oral presentations on modern advances in polymer research. Submissions on topics such as regenerative medicine and drug delivery strategies, materials for optics, electronics and energy applications, and design of interfaces and structural hierarchy are encouraged. The GRS will also provide opportunities for career development through presentations from invited speakers working in various fields as well as time for networking.
