03/25 - THIRD SÃO CARLOS SCHOOL ON GLASSES AND GLASS-CERAMICS
The CeRTEV team is organizing the Third School on Glasses and Glass-ceramics from March 10 to 15, 2025 in São Carlos, São Paulo State, Brazil, following the success of the First International School in 2015 and the Second in 2023.
The main objectives of the school are:
- Provide state-of-the-art information on the structure, dynamic processes (diffusion, viscous flow, relaxation, and crystallization), and optical, electrical, mechanical, and bio chemical properties of glasses and glass-ceramics.
- Disseminate CeRTEV’s faculty, infrastructure, and facilities to Brazilian and international students.
- Strengthen the international network of CeRTEV collaborators.
- Attract future students, post-docs, and visiting scientists and foster collaborative research.
The instructors are well-known experts in experimental, theoretical, and computer simulation studies of glasses. Several professors from NYSCC Alfred University, USA, will join us this year.
Registration:
There is no registration fee for the school.
The organisers can cover the hotel for six nights and the lunch expenses for some selected students. The students or their thesis advisors/home institutions must cover transportation, health insurance, VISA fees, and other related costs.
Interested students must contact the organisers by email before December 20, 2024, and provide:
- An abstract of their thesis project.
- A letter of recommendation from the thesis advisor and a commitment to cover transportation, health insurance, and other costs related to the trip and stay in São Carlos.

Why Crystal Structure Matters: Decoding the Performance of Calcium Phosphate Biomaterials
In the world of calcium phosphate biomaterials, crystal structure is often the silent driver behind a material’s success—or failure. Whether we are developing bone graft substitutes or studying bioceramic interactions at the tissue interface, understanding the underlying crystal lattice isn’t just helpful—it’s essential.
