Focusing on physical metallurgy and materials, the TMS 2000 Fall Meeting will feature a wide array of technical symposia sponsored by The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS). A poster session is also planned. As a greater convenience for attendees, the meeting is typically colocated with ASM International's Materials Solutions Conference. Technical sessions will focus on key information and successful strategies to give attendees insight into the research, development, and application of new materials processes, analysis techniques, and equipment advances.
The TMS 2000 Fall Meeting will take place in St. Louis, Missouri, at the Regal
Riverfront Hotel, which will be the TMS headquarters
for the event. All technical sessions and conference registration will be located
here.
