The 15th Israel Materials Engineering Conference (IMEC-15) will be held at the Le Meridien Hotel at the Dead Sea, Israel, on February 28–March 1, 2012. The conference is chaired by Guy Makov of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. The conference is endorsed by the Materials Research Society, with sponsors including the European Materials Research Society.

Spanning both fundamental and applied research, IMEC-15 plans to reflect the recent breakthroughs in a range of topics, including nanomaterials, biomaterials, materials for energy systems and cleantech, and advanced characterization techniques. Plenary presentations will be given by internationally renowned scientists together with keynote talks by leading scientists from Israel and abroad. Invited speakers include Sir Richard Friend (Cambridge University, UK), Nicola Marzari (University of Trieste, Italy), Eduard Arzt (Leibniz Institute for New Materials in Saarbrücken, Germany), and Joanna Aizenberg (Harvard University, USA). The conference will also include specialized topical sessions, poster sessions, a commercial exhibition, and a conference dinner. Awards will be given to the best student presentations.

The broad coverage by IMEC-15 should provide scientific interest and stimulation to the materials science and engineering community, as well as to a wide interdisciplinary audience including chemists, physicists, and engineers in related fields. The aim of the conference is to bring together academia, research institutes, industry, non-government organizations, and government representatives to exchange information, consolidate and initiate joint research programs, and discuss new opportunities.

The abstract submission deadline is December 2, 2011.
