Synopsis

Our annual conference is a chance for early career materials scientists in academia and industry to come together for a day of talks, posters and presentations from industry. There is a wide mix of research varying from PhD students to established technology from big companies such as Henkel and Synthomer. Attendees will also enjoy extended networking sessions during which posters, lunch and finally a drinks reception may also be enjoyed. Our theme this year is on ‘energy materials’ as we look to explore some of the cutting-edge research in batteries, solar cell materials and fuel cells (among many others). Our aim is to engage early career researchers from all areas of research around energy materials and to foster relationships and potentially productive future collaborations.


Attendees
This event will appeal to early career researchers and academics working in the field of energy materials, battery materials and storage materials.
