DEADLINE for submission of candidatures - 18 March 

FerroSchool is a brand-new educational event supported by IEEE Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control Society (UFFC-S).

Held in Lyon - France - from 20th to 24th June 2022, it aims at bringing together students, postdocs and scientists at any career stage interested in ferroelectric materials. A general overview of fundamentals and applications of such materials will be given through lectures, practicals and demonstrations provided by academics internationally-recognized in the field and by companies known to the ferroelectric community. Scientific exchange and networking opportunities will be offered through a range of social activities including poster presentations facilitating participants to communicate on their own work with experts in the field.
