The general coordinator of the event is Professor Gustavo Martini Dalpian, from the Brazilian Federal University of ABC (UFABC).

Each symposium comprises oral and poster sessions, as well as invited lectures by internationally renowned researchers. The event also features seven plenary lectures by internationally renowned scientists: Prof Alex Zunger (University of Colorado Boulder, USA), Prof Edson Leite (LNNano, Brazil), Prof Hideo Hosono (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan), Prof John Rogers (Northwestern University, USA ), Prof Luisa Torsi (Università degli Studi di Bari “A. Moro”, Italy), Prof Tao Deng (Shanghai Jiaotong University, China), Prof Thuc-Quyen Nguyen (University of California Santa Barbara, USA). The traditional Memorial Lecture Joaquim da Costa Ribeiro will be given by Prof Cid Bartolomeu de Araújo (UFPE).

Awards

The best works of each symposium presented by undergraduate or graduate students will be distinguished at the end of the event with awards from B-MRS (the Bernhard Gross Award). In addition, ACS Publications will award cash prizes, of R$ 2,000 each, to the five best posters and five best oral presentations of the entire event.
