Research on soft materials including colloids, gels, polymers and surfactants is growing tremendously to provide a range of technological solutions.
Soft-Matter: Young Investigators Meeting (SM-YIM) has been a forum for the soft matter community in India to communicate their recent research and to exchange ideas. To continue this process, the 3rd annual SMYIM, will be held during 17-20 December 2015 at Hotel Atithi in Pondicherry.
Submission of abstracts
SMYIM 2015 organizing committee invites the authors to submit abstracts for oral or poster presentation. To ensure that the meeting appeals to a larger audience and addresses the grand challenges in fundamental research and understanding of various aspects of soft matter, abstracts are invited under the following topics.
a) Bulk soft matter assemblies (colloids, gels, surfactants and liquid crystals)
b) Nanoparticle and Nanomaterials
c) Polymers, networks and composites
d) Surfaces, interfaces, and interactions
e) Biological aspects of soft matter
Selection
Authors are requested to submit their abstracts by email smyim2015@gmail.com in one of the above topics, indicating their preference for oral or poster presentation and citing recent publication, if any, from their group on this topic. We are planning to have about 30 oral presentations with sufficient breaks for poster presentation and discussions. In case we receive more abstracts, oral presentations will be selected by a peer-review process and priority will be given to first time presenters in the meeting.
Logistics
Abstract submission opens: 15th July 2015
Abstract submission deadline: 15th September 2015
Notification of accepted abstracts: 15th October 2015
The organizing committee reserves the right to re-categorize any accepted abstract. The decision of the committee is final.
We look forward to see you in Pondicherry
Thanks
