You are cordially invited to submit abstracts for presentations at the Material Science and Technology (MS&T) 2018 Conference in Columbus, OH on October 14-18, 2018; please see: http://www.matscitech.org/ At this conference, the Art, Archaeology and Conservation Science Division of the American Ceramic Society is sponsoring a two-day Special Topics Symposium called "Art and Cultural Heritage: Reverse Engineering", please see: http://www.matscitech.org/technical-program/special-topics/ This two day symposium will highlight both the latest studies involved with the reverse engineering of cultural heritage and the newest discoveries in the scientific study of cultural heritage. This two day symposium will feature the newest findings surrounding the technology, engineering and materials associated with art, archaeology and cultural heritage, including pigments, ceramics, glass, and metals. Also, submissions that explore innovative approaches to training and learning at the intersection of engineering, science, technology and cultural heritage are most welcome. All submissions that pertain to the scientific study of cultural heritage, or advance its understanding and preservation, will be considered.
Please submit your abstract by March 15, 2018, using this link: http://www.programmaster.org/PM/PM.nsf/UpcomingSymposia/A046462BE882408C85258124006EC8C6?OpenDocument&ParentUNID=8B0BF2B4D6505BA8852580CF005B20F8 Symposium organizers are: Dr. John McCloy, Associate Professor, School of Mechanical & Materials Engineering, Washington State University and Director, Materials Science & Engineering Program, Washington State University and Chief Scientist, Joint Appointee, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, [email protected]; and Glenn Alan Gates PhD, Conservation Scientist, Walters Art Museum, 600 North Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21201-5185, Phone:410-246-8365 [email protected] As the leading forum addressing structure, properties, processing and performance across the materials community, MS&T brings together scientists, engineers, students, suppliers and more to discuss current research and technical applications, and to shape the future of materials science and technology. It is organized in a joint partnership between five leading materials science-related societies – ACerS, AIST, ASM International, MetSoc, and TMS. <[email protected]> ****** Unsubscribe by sending a message to [email protected] Searchable archives: http://cool.conservation-us.org/byform/mailing-lists/cdl/
