This is a discussion forum for those scientists,educators, and students of the science and application of advanced materials. If you are in the areas of Science, engineering and technology, this would be an ideal forum for you. We are catering to those scientists, educators and students who are affliated with institutions in Africa and the African Scientists in Diaspora. Our goal is to network african scientists to the main stream scientific community in all areas of science and engineering, in particular to those in material Science. It is our hope that such networking will lead to the formation of a grass root African Material Research Society world wide. Subscribe and let's get it going.
