Industrial Outreach - Section in Development

“Polymer materials for a sustainable future”

This 2008 program reflects an increasing interest for green materials and combines the two symposia held in 2007 by the CCMR: POP and Green Materials.

Polymer Outreach — Green Materials Program

This year’s symposium “Polymer materials for a sustainable future” hosted by Professors Margaret Frey, Fiber Science and Apparel Design, and Uli Wiesner, Materials Science and Engineering, will include presentations covering the latest advances in polymer research at Cornell, industry presentations and the ever-popular poster session highlighting our entire research portfolio and graduate students and postdocs.

Learn about cutting-edge research at Cornell and network with colleagues in academia and industry at our beautiful campus in Ithaca, New York. We look forward to you joining us.

May 20th and 21st

In order to overcome the fundamental challenges facing fuel cell developers, the Cornell Fuel Cell Institute (CFCI) is engaged in a broad-based materials discovery and development program that occurs in collaboration with our industrial partners.

The Fuel Cell Symposium showcases the research and development projects underway at Cornell and in the labs of our industrial and academic partners. Furthermore, it brings together researchers from across the fuel cell technology spectrum to better plan for and meet the ever-evolving requirements of a commercially viable fuel cells.

May 19th and 20th

The MIT Center for Materials Science and Engineering shared experimental facilities offer equipment workshops on a regular basis that are jointly sponsored by the MIT MRSEC and industry, and attended by individuals from the local R&D community.

Recent examples of these sorts of interactions include: a workshop in the X-ray Diffraction lab, co-sponsored by PANalytical; and a seminar on confocal technology for metrology applications, co-sponsored by Olympus Industrial America.
