ACerS meeting highlights The 46th ICACC perseveres despite pivot to virtual meeting for second straight year For the second consecutive year, the International Confer- ence on Advanced Ceramics and Composites was held as a virtual, live meeting from Jan. 24–28, 2022, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ICACC is an annual meeting organized by ACerS Engineering Ceramics Division (ECD). This year marked the conference’s 46th occurrence, but the expectation of meeting in Daytona Beach, Fla., was halted due to the surge of the new Omicron variant that swept the United States and countries around the world in December and January. As a result, the ACerS Executive Committee along with the ECD meeting organizers made the decision to pivot to a fully virtual conference just weeks before the schedule start date. Sunmi Shin, ECD Global Young Investigator Awardee, is introduced by session moderator Kaline Furlan of Hamburg University of Technology. “Despite the hard decision to pivot ICACC 2022 from hybrid to a fully virtual event, I am amazed with the splendid response by the ceramic community for their active participation,” says program chair Palani Balaya of the National University of Singapore. The conference fea- tured 158 sessions and welcomed nearly 700 participants from 37 countries, including 123 students. Balaya says he received positive feedback from participants about the high quality of research work shared during the conference. Below are highlights from the week-long meeting. Opening award session Balaya and ECD chair Hisayuki Suematsu of Nagaoka University of Technology partnered in leading the opening award session on Monday, Jan. 24. The session included plenary talks by Y. Shirley Meng of UC San Diego and Thomas Speck of University of Freiburg, as well as award presentations by Richard Sisson of Worcester Polytechnic Institute (James I. Mueller Memorial Award) and Jingyang Wang of Shenyang National Laboratory for Materials Science (ECD Bridge Building Award). Five ECD members were also honored during the opening session with ECD’s Global Star Award for their great support to the success of ICACC 2022. This year’s recipients included Olivier Guillon, Forsc- hungszentrum Jülich, Germany; Valerie L. Wiesner, NASA Langley Research Center; Emanuel Ionescu, Technische Universität Darmstadt; Bai Cui, University of Nebraska-Lincoln; and Amjad A. Almansour, NASA Glenn Research Center. Student and young professional events Three posters were awarded first place for the ICACC 2021 student poster contest, which was announced during the opening award ses- sion of ICACC 2022. American Ceramic Society Bulletin, Vol. 101, No. 2 | www.ceramics.org Sunmi Shin, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the National University of Singapore, was presented with the ECD Global Young Investigator Award on Tuesday. The tile of Shin’s presentation was “Thermal engineering using infrared photonic structures: probing coherent thermal emission in a single nano-object.” ECD Jubilee Global Diversity Award Each year, three early/mid-career women and minority professionals are selected for the ECD Jubilee Global Diversity Award. This year’s recipients of the Jubilee Global Diversity Award were Cristina Balagna, assistant professor of materials science and technology at Politecnico di Torino, Italy; Zhaoju Yu, professor in the College of Materials at Xiamen University, China; and Tyrone Jones, advanced body armor consultant for Inventor, USA. NIST discussion panel As part of the 6th International Symposium on Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing Technologies symposium, Igor Levin and Andrew Allen of NIST organized a discussion panel on direct ink writing of ceramic materials. This special session continued a series of NIST-led discus- sion events on ceramics additive manufacturing that aim to identify measurement, standards, and data needs hindering the commercial- ization of ceramics additive manufacturing and facilitate collaborative efforts within the ceramics additive manufacturing community. Organizer appreciation session Approximately 50 people encompassing ECD leadership, ICACC symposium organizers, and ACerS staff joined together on Wednesday, Jan. 26, to review ICACC 2022 and look forward to ICACC 2023. The session concluded with the presentation of the ECD Staff Appreciation Award, which this year went to Jonathon Foreman, managing editor of the ACerS journals, and Cathy O’Toole, customer service specialist. ICACC 2023 will take place in Dayton Beach, Fla., Jan. 22–27, 2023. n 39 Credit: ACerSPDF Image | hydrogen as an alternative fuel
