COSAM hosting Dead Day Symposium honoring Worley
The College of Sciences and Mathematics will host the sixth annual Dead Day Symposium on Wednesday, April 30, in the Sciences Center auditorium. This year's topic is "Frontiers in Functional Polymers" and is a tribute to Professor Dave Worley and his far-reaching influence through research, teaching and practical application in the field of functional polymers. The one-day symposium will include talks such as "Patterning of Electronic and Optical Organic Materials," "Halamine Chemistry: Polymeric Cyclic to Polymeric Acyclic Structures" and "Taking a Functional Polymer from the Benchtop to the Consumer Marketplace: A Commercialization Odyssey." The symposium will bring together leading scientists from around the United States and seeks to emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of sciences and mathematics. Registration for the symposium is open to anyone interested in the field of functional polymers. For more information, including registration forms and a complete list of speakers, visit www.auburn.edu/cosam/.
