Researchers now have at their disposal a host of unconventional electronic materials, and new electronic material systems continue to be discovered. What sets many of them apart from traditional electronic materials is their mechanical flexibility — a property that can in principle enable a host of new practical applications. This conference will put the spotlight firmly on the challenges posed — and the exciting opportunities opened up — by flexible electronic media and devices, as we look toward developing an increasingly flexible technological future.

SESSION TOPICS

The conference will present three sessions:

• Session 1: Flexible opportunities
• Session 2: In search of flexibility
• Session 3: Stretching the limits

The deadline for Abstract Submissions is April 22, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. EST
Please see the Registration tab for instructions on abstract submission.
