Ferroelectures: A Virtual Lecture Series!

After a successful Ferro2021 workshop, we are excited to announce a series of monthly lectures: Ferroelectures! Each month, we will feature a prominent member of our ferroelectrics community to talk to you about the exciting work happening in their field of study. Each lecture, held via Zoom, will be an hourlong session beginning at 10 a.m. ET. 

Generally lectures will be at 10 a.m. US Eastern Time on the second Thursday of each month.
