ICMAT 2011 - International Conference on Materials for Advanced Technologies

The Materials Research Society of Singapore (MRS-S) was created in 1999 as a not-for-profit organisation to serve a rapidly emerging materials science community in Singapore. The founding President of the Society was Prof Shih Choon Fong. The Society is affiliated with the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS).

Since its inception the focus of MRS-S has been to promote materials science not only to researchers in Singapore, but also to publicise the niche capabilities of local researchers throughout Asia and further a field.

To this end, the Society's major activity is the organisation of a biennial event - the International Conference on Materials for Advanced Technologies or ICMAT - that is held in July/August and attracts more than 2000 delegates from all over the world.
