SUMMARY:Masterclass II: Wearables and Advanced Textiles
DESCRIPTION:Description\nSmart textiles are fabrics that provide the wearer with increased functionality. These textiles have numerous potential applications\, such as the ability to communicate with other devices\, health monitoring\, protection from environmental hazards and promotion of healthy lifestyle due to enhanced properties (e.g. antimicrobial\, flame-retardant\, easy-cleaning\, thermal comfort). Research and development towards wearable and advanced textiles is a fastest growing area\, with practical applications into sportswear\, automotive and entertainment\, healthcare & safety and military products. \nIn this context\, the goal of this Masterclass is to bring together renowned researchers from various disciplines who are at the forefront of wearable and advanced textiles research and are contributing to improve textile properties by adding new functionalities and smartness to fabrics. The class will also promote crosstalk at the intersections of frontiers in electronics\, physics\, materials science and nanotechnology\, by exploring several approaches for the development of advanced textiles. \n  \nTarget Audience\nResearchers from academia and industry who deal with the development of new products or applications and would like to develop a deeper understanding of wearable and advanced textiles. \n  \nSpeakers\n\nCarla Silva\, Chief Technology Officer of the Center for Nanotechnology and SmartMaterials (CeNTI)\, Portugal (Host)\nDeji Akinwande\, Associate Professor\, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering\, The University of Texas at Austin\, USA\nAndré Pereira\, Assistant Professor\, IFIMUP and IN – Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology\, Department of Physics and Astronomy\, University of Porto\, Portugal\nJonathan Wells\, PhD Student\, Nanshu Lu Research Group\, Electrical and Computer Engineering\, The University of Texas at Austin\, USA\nVadim Tenner\, ITA Aachen (Member of the Organic Electronics Association)\, Germany\nLuís Pereira\, CENIMAT/I3N\, Department of Materials Science\, NOVA School of Science and Technology\, University NOVA Lisboa\, Portugal\n\n  \nThis Masterclass is being coordinated by: \n\nBrian Korgel\, T. Brockett Hudson Professor of Chemical Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin\, USA\nCarla Silva\, Chief Technology Officer of the Center for Nanotechnology and SmartMaterials (CeNTI)\, Portugal\nPaulo Ferreira\, Professor at IST\, University of Lisbon\, and Head of Department of Advanced Electron Microscopy\, Imaging and Spectroscopy at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL)\, Portugal.\n\n  \nProgram\nTo be announced soon. \n  \nLocation\nThis Masterclass will take place at the IB-S Auditorium (5th floor)\, at the University of Minho. \n  \nRegistration\nRegistration is now closed! \nRegistration is free but limited to the number of seats available and dependent on prior registration for the Annual Conference. Acceptance of participants will be made on a first-come\, first-served basis.  \n  \nYou may also like to see: Masterclass I: Quantum Computing \nFor additional information\, please contact events@utaustinportugal.org.
