Welcome
This inaugural workshop will be held at Tel-Aviv University on February 22nd to 25th, 2015.
The goal of this interdisciplinary workshop is the build on and strengthen existing close scientific and engineering interactions between faculty members of the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science (MEAS) of Northwestern University (NU) and the Iby and Aladar Fleischman Faculty of Engineering of Tel-Aviv University (TAU). This new series of joint workshops is part of a broader plan for long-term collaboration between the recently founded Department of Materials Science and Engineering (DMS&E) at TAU and its counterpart at NU.
Internationally acclaimed experimentalists, computational materials scientists, and theoreticians from both universities were invited, which will certainly lead to lively scientific discussions. The many related applications are timely with potentially great impact on the high-technology, nanotechnology, energy, biomedical, information, communication and defense industries.
