Dear TYC members,
TYC Interest Groups are research topic-based groups, created to
foster thematic networks for the wide range of interests among the 100+
research groups in the TYC. The inception of Interest
Groups at the TYC has allowed for a more
structured organisation of our events programme, offering a greater
balance topics, increased inclusivity, and increased attendance.
Please take 2 minutes of your time to complete the form, so that we can keep
you informed of events which relate specifically to your area of
research.
There are 5 interest groups - you may affiliate yourself with as many as are appropriate to your research:
IG1: Methods and Formalisms for Simulating materialsSpokesperson: Jan Tomczak
(jan.tomczak@kcl.ac.uk) IG2: Surfaces, Interfaces (including catalysis, electrochemistry, nanostructures)Spokesperson: Clotilde Cucinotta, (
c.cucinotta@imperial.ac.uk)
IG3: Functional Materials and Devices (including light-matter interactions, spectroscopy, excited states, photonics, plasmonics, solar energy conversion, electronic, thermal and ionic transport)
IG4: Soft and Biological Matter (including biochemistry, biophysics, biomaterials, statistical mechanics)Spokesperson: Edina Rosta
(e.rosta@ucl.ac.uk)IG5: Structural Materials (including dislocations, rheology, chemimechanics,tribology)We hope that:
1. Everyone (TYC PIs, postdocs, students) will attend all five Highlight Seminars annually.
2. Interest Group members attend all ~3 TYC seminars organised by their Interest Group.
3. Interest Group members attend the 1-day annual group event organised by their Interest Group.
Please check the box for the Interest Group, or groups you would like to be affiliated to.
Best Wishes,
TYC Management Committee
