This event is for anyone interested in developing the sustainability aspects of their research/approach, with a focus on metamaterials considerations and applications. This is also for non-metamaterial researchers interested in transitioning or collaborating more with metamaterial methods/researchers. Sustainability is a broad and multidisciplinary challenge area. To evidence direct impact in sustainability (a regular request in many funding calls) fundamental and applied metamaterial research needs to be analysed through a sustainability lens. Their currently lacks specific metamaterial/sustainability training to develop understanding, approaches and analysis to plan and test metamaterials sustainability potential. This summer schools topics will cover: Introductory sessions to both sustainability and metamaterial design Life Cycle Analysis workshop sessions to aid analysis of attendees designs Writing for sustainability (e.g. including relevant information in papers and bids) Renewable energy lab tours, amongst other activities still to be confirmed. Please request/suggest what would you would find useful when registering and we will try to accommodate if possible.
