The ACerS International Italy Chapter hosted “Le mille vite del vetro 2024” (“The thousand lives of glass 2024”) in Venice, Italy, on May 24, 2024.

The organizers would like to thank all the invited speakers and the participants who presented their activity with posters and the Posters Evaluation Committee (L. Niccolai, J. Singh and J. Schotsaert), who had the difficult job of selecting the following Best Posters among many excellent ones.

The Best Poster awardees include:

  • H. Elsayed, “Glass-supported large-scale additive manufacturing of sustainable ceramics”
  • F. Gattucci, “Antimicrobial and virucidal composite coatings integrating glass/ceramic matrix and silver nanoparticles”
  • S. Saffirio, “Ceramic and glass-ceramic materials for energy storage applications”

“Le mille vite del vetro” would not have been possible without the generosity of our sponsors: Isoclima, GlassCompany, the Italian Ceramic Society, and the Italy Chapter of the American Ceramic Society. 

Finally, a special thanks goes to E. Moretti and A. Vomiero (University of Venezia, Ca’ Foscari, Italy) and their Vice-Rector, E. Cattaruzza, our amazing hosts, for their excellent organization of the event in such an incredible location!

Presentations, posters, and pictures will be made available soon.
