A limited number of 10 minute presentations by students and postdocs will also be part of the program. There will also be poster presentation opportunities for anybody attending.

The Symposium on Soft Matter Forefronts will provide researchers an unparalleled opportunity to learn and discuss ideas and research results on the developing edge of soft matter science.

The number of attendants is limited, so please, register soon. Students and post-docs registration is $150. Standard registration is $250. Registration includes symposium materials, lunch for all three days and a welcome reception on Thursday.
