Register for this year's Materials Day Symposium & Poster Session— Designing The Future of Extreme Materials.

Speakers will share real-world challenges and solutions, offering insights into cutting-edge alloy development, composite behavior under impact, and dimensional stability in substrates and components. The program highlights innovations that are redefining performance expectations and fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration around materials that are engineered not just to endure—but to enable the technologies of the future.

Expect two marquee keynotes—plus a stacked lineup.

We’re excited to welcome Dr. Matthew Draper (ICAM/IBAS) and Dr. S. David Roh (LG Innotek) to headline this year’s program, framing the future of advanced materials from government and industry perspectives—and they’re just the beginning.

Expect a broader slate of MIT speakers sharing cutting-edge work on next-gen materials, followed by a lively audience Q&A and an engaging poster session.

Register today to secure your spot!
Registration closes September 29, 2025, and lunch is included for those who register by the deadline.
