3^rd Münster Symposium on Intelligent Matter

Impressions from MüSIM2024

On Wednesday, 25^th of September, 2024 the Collaborative Research Centre 1459 „Intelligent Matter“ hosted MüSIM2024!

It was unquestionably THE key event in our scientific calendar, uniting national and international scientists for a day filled with inspiring presentations, discussions on breakthroughs and future directions, poster sessions, networking opportunities, and much more.

MüSIM 2024 Awards & Prizes

We received several outstanding applications with impressive resumes for the MüSIM 2024 Young Researcher Award. This year’s finalist was chosen to be Pengron Lyu for his contribution:

Advancing Interactive Systems with Liquid Crystal Network-Based Adaptive Electronics

in Nature Communications 2024, 15: 419.1

He also gave a short talk on his contribution during the symposium.
