Annual DUTCH POLYMER DAYS
Dutch Polymer Days
Since 2000, the Dutch Polymer community assembles in Lunteren (NL) for the so-called "Dutch Polymer Days" (DPD), a two-day annual conference conference in different areas of polymers: Chemistry, Physics, Technology, Processing, BioMaterials & BioProcesses.
Primary objective of DPD is to encourage young researchers (PhD- & PDEng-students and post doctoral fellows) to present their work in plenary lectures, workshops lectures and a poster session, to a wide audience.
Moreover, some world-class high profile speakers are invited, among which the PTN Medema Lecture award winner. This award is given to world-leading polymer scientists with a strong connection to the Dutch polymer science community.
The congress language is English.
Because of the Corona outbreak the Dutch Polymer Days 2020 were cancelled. We hope you all stay safe in these challenging times! We are looking forward to meeting you @ DPD in 2021!
