Ready to give your research the global stage it deserves? 🚀 #MRSBulletin is calling for #OriginalResearch! We want your latest breakthroughs in: 🤖 AI/ML Materials Discovery 💎 Quantum & 2D Materials 📐 Defects in Crystals 🧪 Liquid Metal Science 🌍 Critical Minerals 🚀 ...and beyond!

MRS led a 7-society effort engaging Congress on serious concerns with a new OMB proposal that threatens federal research grants. We are actively advocating to protect scientific funding, and the #MRSGAC encourages you to share with your network to help amplify this message.

🔬 Want to conduct research at the frontier of #MaterialsScience? Join us for a live, interactive panel with top minds from the U.S. DOE National Laboratories: PNNL, LLNL, Argonne, Los Alamos, and Oak Ridge. Perfect for students, early-career researchers, and professionals looking to collaborate.

The OMB’s proposed changes to federal grantmaking could restrict knowledge-sharing and impact U.S. innovation leadership. MRS has officially submitted our concerns—but the materials community needs to speak up, too. Submit feedback by July 13, 2026. See links in comments.

We are talking site-specific microstructure control, compositional gradients, and complex architectures that change the game for functionality and adaptability. Catch the full breakdown in our latest Reel, then join the conversation live!
