Join the Materials Research Society

Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, materials scientists and researchers from around the world are working on projects that have the potential to change the way we live. You and your colleagues work in a wide variety of settings and are interested in the total spectrum of materials-related issues and applications. Yet in many ways, your goals and challenges are much the same. To seek information. To collaborate with one another on ground-breaking techniques. To earn the respect of your peers. And to reach out to your communities.

To help you reach these goals, one society stands out from the rest—the Materials Research Society.

MRS is an incredible community of scholars, innovators, and engineers driven to have a positive impact on the world through new materials. Being an MRS Member gives me access to forefront research spanning materials synthesis, characterization, and applications. The Spring and Fall MRS conferences are among my favorite annual meetings to connect with the community, and the monthly MRS Bulletin is a great way to stay informed about emerging topics in the interim. The MRS community has provided me with the support, inspiration, and resources to accomplish frontier science throughout my career, and I'm grateful to be an MRS Member!
