The CASC summer school is back this September 20-22nd at the Imperial College London. We will have guest lectures from @DilettaGiuntini on ceramics sintering modelling and @DrClaireDancer on ceramic metamaterials processing and more to come! More info: https://t.co/DkbPlS33ZK
Many congratulations to Max Emmanuel for winning the Prize in Advanced Materials Characterization Techniques in the Department of Materials at Imperial College and to Shitong Zhou for the Tony Evans prize to the best PhD Thesis in the ceramics discipline. Well done!
March 17th we will be holding a workshop in memory of our friend and colleague Prof. Luc Vandeperre at the Royal School of Mines in Imperial College.
This is a free, open event to celebrate Luc's life and accomplishments.
The Department of Materials at Imperial is looking for five outstanding individuals to join as Lecturers/Senior Readers/Readers.
One of the positions is in the field of ceramics and glasses.
