Informes do I Encontro DA SBPMat

Informe no MRS Bulletin/October 2002: 

Inaugural Meeting of Brazil-MRS Held in July (brazil.pdf)



Mensagens enviadas à diretoria da SBPMat:

* " I want to thank you again for the fantastic meeting you and your colleagues have organized. We are all grateful to you for the kind hospitality. I do believe that Brazilian MRS will play a significant role in S. America with you as the first leader. I look forward to continue working with you."

Robert Chang
General Secretary
The international Union of Materials Research Societies

 

* " I think your ran a great meeting. As I told you at the meeting itself, I was impressed with the level of the science presented. At similar kick-off meetings that I have attended previously, I found that the invited talks by international participants are usually at a high level, but that there is often a steep gradient when switching to contributed talks. In Symposium A (the main symposium I attended) I was pleasantly surprised at the
high quality of most of the presentations. Either you did a lot work in the pre-selection, or you simply have some very good science going on in the field.
From my point of view it was also greatly appreciated to have the meeting conducted in English. I am sure this was a big hassle for most Brazilian participants, but it sets the scene for a true international exchange. "

Ulrich Dahmen
Director, National Center for Electron Microscopy
Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory

 

* " I felt that the Meeting was enormously successful scientifically, as well as being extremely smoothly organized. You and the other Organizers, especially the local organizers, must be congratulated on conducting a highly professional Meeting - good technical program, good choice of Symposia topics, and good choice of leading speakers, positively bountiful hospitality and catering for the coffee breaks, posters, reception, etc., smooth registration process, and a good choice of location and hotel. The Program Book was excellent (although I wished for an index of authors' names at the end). And the web site posting was good. How many people registered, in total?

A highly successful Inaugural Event for SBPMat! Congratulations!

In regard to formal membership in IUMRS, I have no doubts that your application will succeed. SBPMat will be eligible for membership two years after its legal establishment took place.

I will be happy to work with you in preparing the SBPMat Application, before it goes to the Commission for appraisal. Please let me know when you are ready to work on this.

Once again, thank you for a spectacularly successful Meeting, and hearty 
congratulations!"

John Baglin
Chair, IUMRS Membership Commission

* "You should feel very proud of the success of your meeting. The attendance was outstanding for a first meeting and it seemed you had representatives from all over South America. The poster session was dynamic and exciting.
I think it often reflects the health of an organization when people stay around even when they are not speaking to interact and talk about science.

Your leadership and the enthusiasm you generated amongst your staff and students make materials science seem an exciting field. I hope that the media attention will allow your administrators to understand your accomplishment.

Good luck with your future meetings!"

Dawn Bonell
President 2003, The Science & Technology Society

* "Muchas gracias por la invitación al 1 MRS-Brazil Meeting. Fue un excelente congreso que abre una enorme cantidad de posibilidades de interacciones entre investigadores de la Región. No me cabe duda que los contactos
establecidos darán enormes frutos en el corto plazo."

José Luis Arias
Universidad de Chile



* "Meus cumprimentos pelo evento, cuja força motriz foi, realmente, você. Do ponto de vista científico, no simpósio de nanotecnologia a qualidade foi muito alta. Os convidados estrangeiros foram muito bons (eu só não
assisti à parte de semicondutores), e a parte nacional também foi de alta qualidade. Algumas apresentações foram um pouco pontuais demais (ou seja, tinham pouca introdução, face à quantidade de resultados específicos), mas
sempre foram estimulantes.
O grande desafio que a sociedade deverá enfrentar é o de atrair colegas
refratários. Eu acho que não adianta lutar demais pelos mais velhos, que são sempre benvindos, 
mas devemos buscar os jovens. Portanto, uma diretriz para a próxima reunião deveria ser convidar
um bando de garotões (e garotonas) que estão fazendo coisas muito boas.
Um grande abraço, e entusiásticos parabéns."

Fernando Galembeck
UNICAMP



* "Quero registrar minha impressão de sucesso do primeiro encontro da SBPMat. O nosso simpósio foi muito ativo, e notei que os outros também. 
Nada teria sido possível sem sua vontade enorme de fazê-lo funcionar.
Espero que sirva de bom augúrio à SBPMat,
Parabéns, e à sua equipe."

Marilia Caldas
USP



* "De volta a Porto Alegre, trouxe comigo boas lembranças do 1o Encontro da SBPMat - graças a muito esforço e dedicação do pessoal à sua liderança - congratulações pelo sucesso alcançado.

Creio que este foi um passo importante para a consolidação da Sociedade, como parte do amadurecimento da Comunidade Cientifica do pais. Foi por isto que, alem de participar com meu estudante de doutorado no Encontro, e 
mesmo antes dele, fiz questao de fazer minha humilde colaboração para a recem-fundada SBPMat. "
