Allcock of Pennsylvania State University and Professor Yoshiki Chujo of Kyoto University. Polymer chemists, chemical engineers, ceramic scientists and materials experts from the United States and Japan will share state-of-the-art information about the development of hybrid inorganic-organic materials targeted for nano-science and nano-technology. The workshop will identify areas for mutually beneficial research collaboration, and provide a forum to explore specific approaches for advancing such collaborations. The participation of postdoctoral researchers and graduate students will expose them to cutting-edge research ideas in their field, as well as help them to develop a network of international contacts. The workshop is jointly supported by NSFs Office of International Science and Engineering and the Division of Materials Research.
