2023 MRS Spring Meeting

Our 2023 MRS Spring Meeting & Exhibit took place April 10-14 in San Francisco, California at the Moscone Center West and nearby Marriott Marquis and InterContinental San Francisco. The in-person meeting was followed by three days of exclusive virtual content April 25-27.

Our spring meetings are the key forum to present research to an interdisciplinary and international audience. Attendees this spring received a glimpse into the future of materials science, networked with colleagues, made new connections,  and celebrated MRS' 50th Anniversary.

Celebrating a Legacy of Innovation

We started our year-long celebration of 50 years of service to the materials research community at the 2023 MRS Spring Meeting & Exhibit in April. For half a century, MRS has proudly represented the interests of thousands of materials researchers across disciplines, generations and continents. In collaboration with our global Membership, we have forged an unparalleled legacy of innovation at the leading edge of materials research and look forward to building on our momentum as we continue to invest in our field for years to come.

2023 Spring Meeting Highlights

MRS TV is back to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Materials Research Society! We're taking a look back at how far MRS has come in the last 5 decades, through all of the research it's motivated, and all the relationships it's fostered.
