6th Joint Annual Meeting, IEEE MagSoc Chicago and SEM Chapters and NTC Chicago Chapters

Welcome to the 6th Joint Annual Meeting of the IEEE Magnetics Society, Chicago Chapter and South East Michigan (SEM) Chapter and IEEE Nanotechnology Council Chicago Chapters, to be held in a hybrid form (in-person plus on Zoom) with in-person venue at Northwestern University on Friday, November 15, 2024. The meeting will provide free breakfast & lunch and face-to-face interaction with the local Chicago researchers in Magnetics and Nanotechnology as well as researchers from Michigan!
The meeting will convene local and international academics, professionals and students with broad interests in magnetics and nanotechnology. The meeting will provide a forum for highlighting the latest advances in magnetism, spintronics, nanotechnology, and nanoelectronics, and will provide opportunities to facilitate networking and collaboration.
Highlights:
This year the joint IEEE Annual Meeting will be an inter-chapter in-person event between IEEE MagSoc Chicago and SEM Chapters to promote cross-state interaction and collaboration. We have also invited an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer (Prof. Sanjukta Bhanja from University of South Florida) to give an in-person presentation about nanotechnology. In addition, we have also invited an industry speaker (Dr. Vikas Nandwana from NFNS) to give an in-person presentation about application of nanotechnology.
Breakfast, lunch and coffee will be provided. Please register for the event in order to count for food orders. There are no Registration Fees, but registration is required.
