Final Programme

Announcement of the Students Seminar 2018 Winners by Christian Weimer, Airbus, Chairman of the Students Seminar

Presentation of the Mort Kushner Award to David Carlton, UK and Ireland Chapterby Brent Strong, President SAMPE Global and Prof. Andrew Long Chairman of SAMPE UK & IrelandOne of SAMPE Global’s most prestigious awards recognizes SAMPE members who have given back to both SAMPE and the advanced materials com-munity more than anyone could expect. This award, the Mort Kushner Lifetime Achievement Award, honors those who have dedicated exceptional service to the Society by promoting the ideals of SAMPE extending over many years. Since it was created nearly 30 years ago, only 17 people have received this special designation. In Europe, previous recipients include Ernst Schiantarelli, Mark Erath and Adrie Kwakernaak. Tonight, one more name joins that unique and very special group. For all of his service to SAMPE and especially the UK & Ireland Chapter, we honor David Carlton.
