Self-assembly is an important phenomenon on the formation of minerals in nature and has been become to a popular method to synthesize advanced materials in both lab and industrial scales. Up to now, plentiful materials prepared via self-assembly have been applied in various fields such as energy, catalysis, biomedicine, and electrics. For instance, advanced super lattice materials have been prepared via self-assembly of nanoparticles.
Many high-performance applications today necessitate the use of advanced materials that need to operate under coupled extreme environments where a material is subjected to more than one hostile environment that drives one or more material properties to near failure. This could include extreme local pressures, temperatures, fields, electrochemical potential gradients, and atomic displacement rates. Such coupled extreme environments pose among the highest demands on materials. The November 2022 issue of MRS Bulletin highlights new materials science methods and opportunities that will enable rapid progress in materials subjected to coupled extreme environments enabling them to work effectively under such conditions.
The talks in this webinar by authors from the issue will discuss some such materials systems under coupled extreme environments that are being explored using new methods and techniques, including challenges and opportunities.
The presentation, led by Dr. Andrew Schwartz, will provide an overview of the fundamental materials research activities, including national user facilities for materials sciences research, that are supported by DOE’s Office of Basic Energy Sciences (BES).
This session describes current and future funding opportunities within the Department of Defense’s Office of Basic Research.
Understanding the environment around us is essential to navigate the workplace. Social awareness allows us to understand others and empathize, ultimately providing us with the ability to connect and create stronger relationships for greater team and organizational success. In this session, we will explore the what, why, and how of social awareness.

We all need to build relationships with others. This session focuses on how integrating the competencies of self-awareness, self-management and social awareness build and sustains effective relationships. In this session, we will integrate all of the emotional and social competencies and discuss how to communicate more effectively, better manage conflict, and collaborate for success.
Details for this event will be announced shortly. This webinar is presented in conjunction with the April, 2023 issue of MRS Bulletin.
