Call for Contributed Presentations
The SIAM Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Materials Science (MS16) CMS submission site is open for contributed abstract submissions and minisymposium lecturers invited to participate to submit their abstracts. The Conference Management System (CMS) submission site deadline is December 15, 2015 extended to December 30, 2015 and the link to the submission site is http://meetings.siam.org/start.cfm?CONFCODE=ms16.
The SIAM Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Materials Science (MS16) welcomes submission of abstracts for contributed lectures for particular symposia or as a poster presentation. The list of accepted minisymposia appears below. To review the full details of each minisymposia, please click on the hyperlinks. Each session will have an assigned session code. You will need to identify this session code when submitting your abstract into the conference management system.
