2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Kimberly Hill <kmhill@xxxxxxx> Hello, fellow volcanology fans! Are you fascinated by "granular matter" (particle-fluid behaviors) and how physics can relate them to "soft matter", and in geology things get even more exciting? (in volcanos, tectonics, earth's mantle, etc.). Then you should consider coming to the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.grc.org/granular-matter-conference/2024/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!cLrkkmO5pSDsV0V7FTkAZleSfe-8Cd37NxgloatUl0mS7GYx3TYIqYNeS8aIsGufbUTrb18NqfPjZg6C9O_iUtIt2A$> on Granular Matter this June 23-28. Or it's predecessor (for graduate students and postdocs only), the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.grc.org/granular-matter-grs-conference/2024/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!cLrkkmO5pSDsV0V7FTkAZleSfe-8Cd37NxgloatUl0mS7GYx3TYIqYNeS8aIsGufbUTrb18NqfPjZg6C9O_YmUOyTQ$> on Granular Matter this June 22-23.

This five-day conference will take place in Stonehill College, fostering an environment that encourages camaraderie, scientific exchange, and the development of lasting collaborations and friendships. We are happy to announce that we have a diverse set of speakers, which is essential for the field, as granular materials present challenges that require multidisciplinary solutions. The conference brings together experts from engineering, mathematics, physics, chemistry, geological and planetary sciences to address these challenges collaboratively. >From clay to gravel, cosmetics to coffee beans, and dust to suspensions, granular media are omnipresent and play a crucial role in various applications, both human-based and natural. The event will cover this wide range of topics covered by granular materials and their relevance for fundamental research and practical applications. This year's conference will emphasize applications under "extreme" conditions and environments, pushing the boundaries of granular matter science. As usual for Gordon Conferences, the Granular Matter GRC showcases cutting-edge and unpublished research in the field, providing a platform for scientists worldwide to present their latest developments and discoveries. Following each talk, ample time is allocated for in-depth discussions, allowing participants to engage with speakers and delve deeper into the presented research. In addition to formal discussions, the conference includes designated time for poster sessions, afternoon free time, and communal meals, facilitating informal networking opportunities. These interactions aim to bridge gaps between scientists and engineers from different disciplines, fostering cross-disciplinary collaborations. The conference will include organized discussions around Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) topics, acknowledging the importance of creating an inclusive environment in scientific communities. We are also paired with a Gordon Research Seminar, specifically aimed to provide a growth environment for junior scientists. Join us at the Gordon Conference on Granular Matter as we celebrate the diversity, challenges, and frontiers of granular materials. Together, let's push the boundaries of scientific knowledge and build bridges across disciplines. We look forward to welcoming you at this exciting and enriching scientific gathering. Sincerely, Kimberly Hill & Joshua Dijksman, chairs for GRC Kerstin Nordstrum & Chris Ness, vice-chairs for GRC Olfa D'Angelo & Navid Hooshanginejad, chairs for GRS 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
