News in Materials Science
As an expert researcher and information specialist, keeping up with the many facets of materials science is a most interesting challenge.
One of my favorite activities is to check the ASM International web site for the ASM Newswire at least once a week, if not every day, at http://asmcommunity.asminternational.org/portal/site/www/NewsArchive/
From carbon nanotube paint to prevent ice buildup on aircraft, to bacterial cellulose for artificial blood vessels, ASM's Newswire is one of my secrets to keep up with "what's new?"
The news titles link to the story for additional information, a time-saving feature.
I recently joined ASM International and look forward to networking with members!
