Plenary session

The scientific program is complemented by the plenary session taking place on Wednesday afternoon May 27 in room SCHWEITZER (Ground floor), with three speakers. The line-up of the plenary speakers is outstanding and these events are wonderful opportunities to learn and to be inspired. The collective wisdom, perspective, and leadership experience of the three individuals will be a highlight of the conference week.

This central session will continue with the presentation of the E-MRS EU-40 Materials Prize recipient. The latter is a prestigious prize awarded to researchers under 40 who are showing exceptional promise for leadership and have made outstanding and innovative contributions to Materials Research in Europe.

It's hard to imagine a richer offering of speakers. And that's the point of the plenary session: they provide a shared experience for all conference attendees. Plenary session is a time for a break from the details of your week, a time to be stimulated and to reflect on the values that brought us to the field and that continue to motivate us each day.

The social event open to all participants will conclude the plenary session.
