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 L
Tomography and X-ray microtomography applied to materials and biomaterials
Scope of the Symposium
High-resolution x-ray microtomography uses x-rays to create cross-sections of a physical object that can be used to recreate a virtual model (3D model) without destroying the original object. While medical and industrial tomography equipment has resolution in the order of millimeters, microtomography allows for the visualization of the interior of materials in the micrometers order. This technology has shown to be promising both in studies of new materials and in new industrial sectors. The aim of this symposium is to promote the interaction between researchers from the academic and industrial sectors interested in the research, development, methodology, practice and use of microtomography applied to materials (metals, polymers and composites)
Abstracts will be solicited in (but not limited to) the following areas
- Tomography and microtomography of materials and biomaterials
- Computational algorithms and tomographic tools applied to materials analysis
- Characterization of porous materials and biomaterials using microtomography
- Tomographic and microtomographic instrumentation
- Characterization of materials and biomaterials using microtomography
