Sydney Surfaces and Soft Stuff Meeting 2024
UNSW
May 15, 2024 – May 15, 2024
It's time to get Sassy again!
The Sydney Surfaces and Soft Stuff meeting is a one day symposium for researchers in colloids and interface science who are based in and around Sydney. The idea is to get to know other people in the neighbourhood who are doing related work. Our aim is for the oral presentations to be predominantly given by 2nd and 3rd year PhD students. There will be an opportunity to discuss posters too.
