List of Recent & Upcoming Co-Sponsored & MRS-Endorsed Meetings


MRS Endorsement is an official recommendation to MRS members, but without active MRS involvement in the programming. Generally, MRS will consider endorsement of a meeting if the topic is of high interest to a significant subset of MRS members and does not conflict with MRS policies and events. MRS maintains no financial or operational interest in such programming and assumes no liability with regard to endorsed meetings.

International School for Materials for Energy and Sustainability (ISMES X)

  • Dates: 03 – 08 Jul, 2023
  • Location: Erice, Sicily

Learn more about this conference held in Erice, Sicily, July 3-8, 2023

ISMES school returns to the place where it was born in 2010, the prestigious “Ettore Majorana” Centre in Erice, where culture, beauty and charm mix with science, in a timeless atmosphere. The school will review critical materials issues for the renewable and sustainable production and storage of energy. The aim is to teach the state-of-the-art and present future perspectives of these areas, which are ever more important for our planet as climate change consequences of business-as-usual become obvious. It will be a great opportunity to bring together an international community of students, young scientist, and experts in a unique atmosphere for reciprocal benefits in terms of enthusiasm, knowledge and new ideas. 


Co-sponsorship is the strongest form of cooperation, in which an MRS appointee is directly and actively involved in program development.  Co-sponsored meetings may or may not also have MRS operational or financial involvement.  Any involvement requiring expending MRS labor or finances requires the approval of the MRS Director of Programs and/or the MRS Executive Director.
