The topic of this year Materials for Tomorrow is Bioinspired Materials – an exciting area of research that draws inspiration from nature to develop new materials with enhanced or unique properties.
Overview
Bioinspired materials involve areas such as robotics and sensors, antimicrobial materials, understanding complex hierarchical structures in nature, biochemical applications, design principles, and sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions.
The conference will take place at Chalmers Conference Centre, RunAn, in Gothenburg on 13-14 November with several internationally recognized speakers.
Photo Contest
In concurrence with the conference Materials for Tomorrow the Area of Advance Materials Science organize a materials science photo competition. The idea is to bring forth the beauty that can be found in materials science. The top three candidates are rewarded grand prizes.

Poster session
The conference will feature a poster session and a rapid fire poster presentation with chances of winning a generous poster award. Use the poster abstract template on the conference registration page and send your abstract to materials@chalmers.se, not later than 24 October. The program for Materials for Tomorrow will be presented at the end of June. You can already and submit contributions for both the poster exhibition and the photo competition.
