MRS conducts two major Meetings every year, the Spring Meeting in San Francisco and the Fall Meeting in Boston. Consisting of topical symposia, the Meetings have become important and not-to-be-missed events for Materials Researchers around the world for presenting their work, for getting information on up-to-the minute developments in their field, and for networking.
Researchers have developed a simple method for producing 2D materials that involves slamming a gold crystal against a bulk material.
