Multi-Scale Challenges in Tribology: Implications for Fundamental Research and Industrial Applications

The Gordon Research Seminar on Tribology is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

The 2016 Gordon Research Seminar, to be held for the second time in conjunction with the GRC, gives young tribologists the opportunity to present their research to their peers in an unintimidating atmosphere, prepare themselves in tutorial lectures for the GRC, and build networks with colleagues. Industry and academic speakers will talk about career paths, and important open questions and future opportunities related to tribology. We expect lively, informative discussions for the emerging generation of tribologists. Participants of the GRS are encouraged to send questions and suggestions for this session to the GRS Chair in advance to the meeting.
