Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Crystal Growth and Assembly is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

This meeting will focus on topics ranging from the fundamentals of nucleation and crystal growth, to the formation of thin films, hierarchical structures, biominerals, and beyond. In addition to these engaging scientific discussions, the GRS provides an excellent opportunity for professional development and networking across our research community.

We invite researchers from all sub-disciplines of Crystal Growth and Assembly to submit abstracts for poster and oral presentations.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Crystal Growth and Assembly" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
