President’s Message Welcome to Philadelphia and the 45th Annual Conference of the North American Thermal Analysis Society (NATAS). I hope, while you are here, that you have a chance to enjoy the beautiful urban campus of the University of Pennsylvania, and the historic city of Philadelphia, the birthplace of American independence. There are exciting things to see and do, including visits to Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, and the Betsy Ross House. And, you probably should satisfy your hunger at least once with a famous Philly cheesesteak. The founder of the University of Pennsylvania, Benjamin Franklin, was one of America’s earliest scientists, making contributions to optics (bifocals), electricity, batteries, the lightning rod, and the Franklin stove, which would radiate heat from the middle of the room in all directions – perhaps his own early contribution to what would become thermal analysis. Franklin’s maxim “well-done is better than well-said” captures the essence of the hard work and planning of this year’s conference committee. Our Conference Chair and Awards Chair, Andrew McGhie (University of Pennsylvania); Technical Program Chair, Xiao Hu (Rowan University); Exhibition Chair, Tina Adams (Lubrizol Corp); Proceedings Chair, Elizabeth Pelczar (Innophos); and Short Course Chair, Sara Reynaud (Arkema) have worked hard to put together a great meeting, with outstanding plenary and keynote lectures, parallel technical sessions each day, a general and student poster session, and awards banquet. The conference would not be possible without the dedication of these volunteers. I personally thank them and the other NATAS volunteers and support staff, for their hard work and dedication to the society. Each year, the conference includes a vendor exhibition where attendees can see the newest thermal analysis instruments, software, and support products. We are grateful to our exhibitors, without whom this conference and this society would not be possible, and their multiple forms of support (from conference presentations, lunches, receptions, and joint advertising) help to make NATAS the great society that it is. Please, set aside some time to visit the exhibition booths. You will find it well worth the time invested. As you enjoy the conference, I hope you will consider becoming active in the society as a volunteer. We are always looking for capable and committed people to help improve NATAS to better serve our members. For 45 years, NATAS has been the society at the forefront of thermal analysis, which continues as an important interdisciplinary branch of science with applications spanning fields as diverse as pharmaceuticals, life-sciences, nano-materials, and energetic materials. Thermal analysis is central in much of our professional lives, and your talents and contributions to the society would be welcome. Enjoy the conference, and don’t hesitate to contact me at [email protected].

  • LIQUID CRYSTAL NEWSLIQUID NEWS $(%(&' "!!#$(%(&'"!!# GW Gray Medal for 2006 Professor Heino Finkelmann
    LIQUID CRYSTAL NEWSLIQUID NEWS $(%(&' "!!#$(%(&'"!!# GW Gray Medal for 2006 Professor Heino Finkelmann as originally intended in Krakow. Since these days, we have met very frequently, for example, when I was privileged to lecture in Professor Finkelmann’s Institute and at many other scientific meetings not least of which was the Twelfth International Liquid Crystal Conference held in 1988 in Freiburg itself and chaired and organised by Professor Finkelmann. My wife and I well remember enjoying a glass of wine with Heino and his wife and two boys at their home after the closing ceremonies were complete and people like conference chairmen are at last allowed to relax. I have put the material in the above paragraph early in this article about Heino Finkelmann, because I wanted to stress that his very great contributions to the subject of liquid crystals have been not only in the area of scientific research, but also, by his readiness to travel far and wide to Heino Finkelmann was born in Gronau in Lower give lectures, by spreading the word on the subject, by Saxony in 1945. After school, his studies at the Scientific serving on the editorial boards of relevant journals, by Technical Academy at Isny were in the field of chemical organising meetings and conferences such as the 12th engineering and on the way to qualifying in 1969, he spent ILCC, by serving as he has twice done on the Board of time with Unilever Research and with British Petroleum in Directors of the International Liquid Crystal Society and by Hamburg. He then studied Chemistry at the Technical acting as Chairman of the German Liquid Crystal Society University of Berlin, and it was here that he first began as he did for many years.

Zhang, Beijing, China For further volumes: http://www.springer.com/series/12 Aims and Scope The series Advances in Polymer Science presents critical reviews of the present and future trends in polymer and biopolymer science. It covers all areas of research in polymer and biopolymer science including chemistry, physical chemistry, physics, material science. The thematic volumes are addressed to scientists, whether at universities or in industry, who wish to keep abreast of the important advances in the covered topics. Advances in Polymer Science enjoys a longstanding tradition and good reputa- tion in its community. Each volume is dedicated to a current topic, and each review critically surveys one aspect of that topic, to place it within the context of the volume. The volumes typically summarize the significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years and discuss them critically, presenting selected examples, explaining and illustrating the important principles, and bringing together many important references of primary literature. On that basis, future research directions in the area can be discussed. Advances in Polymer Science volumes thus are important refer- ences for every polymer scientist, as well as for other scientists interested in polymer science - as an introduction to a neighboring field, or as a compilation of detailed information for the specialist.
