Workshop
Young Researchers´School: Tutorial on Scientific Writing and the Editorial Process
Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Valtencir Zucolotto, IFSC / USP
The " Young Researchers´School " aims to develop / improve / strengthen the
skills necessary for researchers to do High Impact science, upon knowing the state of
the art in specific areas. The School will be offered to under and Graduate students
and post-docs.
It is hoped that researchers can optimize their potential in doing research, with regard to:
1) Development of national and international research projects with bold objectives,
and implementation of high-level scientific research. Such an approach is essential to
promote significant advances at the frontier of knowledge of each area.
2) Production of international scientific articles, through appropriate and efficient
writing.
As a result, we expect to collaborate with the formation of high-level
researchers, trained to recognize and act on the
state-of-the-art in their fields, in a way
to generate relevant knowledge and innovation for society.

Symposium S
Nanofibers, Applications and Related Technology
Scope of the Symposium
Nanofibers has been attracted many attention of the scientific community, as result of their unique properties. This symposium aims to provide a profitable environment for dissemination and discussion of projects and research related but not limited to Design, Processing and Applications of Nanofibers. Aiming to foster a greater interaction between research groups from different Brazilian Universities and Companies, dedicated to experimental techniques and theoretical understanding on the the Synthesis, Characterization and Applications of Nanofibers, produced by different techniques, such as: electrospinning, blow-spinning, rotating spinning, etc. It is thus expected that the symposium that strategically brings together researchers in related areas will provide a pleasant and rich discussion environment.
Abstracts will be solicited in (but not limited to) the following areas
- Processing of Fibrous Materials, Polymer Reactions and Synthesis
- Synthesis and Physical Properties of Nanofibers
- Processing design and development
- Polymer, ceramic, metal and composite nano/microfibers
- Green materials and sustainability
- Theory and simulation related to the process and/or materials? properties
- Applications of nano/microfibers including filtration and water remediation processes, biomedical applications, optoelectronics, food packaging, smart wearables and textiles, energy harvesting and storage, catalysis, sensor and actuators etc.
