\nInterviews with plenary speakers<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

We have interviewed Professor Alberto Salleo<\/strong>, from\u00a0Stanford University<\/strong>, who is going to give a plenary lecture on organic electronic devices<\/strong> in the XIII SBPMat Meeting. Young, yet holding a career that stands out internationally, Salleo told us about the work conducted by his group, which has been developing a deeper understanding on the role provided by the defects<\/strong> in charge transport<\/strong> in organic semiconductors<\/strong>. He also shared with us his main papers, published in Nature Materials<\/strong>. Finally, Salleo discussed the next challenges and applications<\/strong> on organic electronics, and anticipated what he is going to address in the plenary lecture, which promises to be very informative while mild enough for a wider audience.

Upon his inauguration as a full member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC), we talked to Professor Fernando L\u00e1zaro Freire<\/strong> Junior<\/strong>, SBPMat’s former president, financial director and scientific director. Throughout his scientific path, Professor Fernando L\u00e1zaro has been specially committed to researching carbon-based materials<\/strong>: DLC films, nanotubes and graphene. The researcher told us how he became a scientist, and commented on his most highlighted contributions to the field of Materials. Having a great portion of his career developed in the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio<\/strong>), \u00a0the Professor emphasized, in his message to younger readers: it is possible to do research with an international impact in Brazil<\/strong>.

History of SBPMat<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

We talked again to Professor Fernando L\u00e1zaro Freire Junior<\/strong>, President of the society during two turns in a roll, from 2006 to 2009<\/strong>. During such time, SBPMat held, in addition to the 4 annual meetings, with an increasing number of attendees, the International Conference on Advanced Materials<\/strong> (ICAM 2009). It was also in those years that the society organized its office<\/strong>. Professor Fernando L\u00e1zaro presented a brief overview on his administration, regretted some pending issues (proximity with members and the interaction with the industry) and, to conclude, said that young people<\/strong> should be more involved in SBPMat’s decisions.
