My personal point of view on a Materials Science Symposium

There's always something to be learned in a symposium.
Even if the 90% of the presentations deals with subjects far from that of our interest.
I was the photographer of the 9th National Symposium of the (Italian) National Interuniversity Consortium of Materials Science and Technology, held in Bari, Italy, last week.



The intelligence and open-mindedness of the organizers allowed to have a first day of the congress devoted to Cultural Heritage, but also to a consideration about the power of Nature and a lesson about Science communication. 
It was an inspiring day, of course (for example the importance of communicating through images, ok, photos number will increase in this blog!), but I speak also about the oral presentations and posters of the following days. They concerned disparate subjects far from those of my interest, but in many cases so well-done to give new ideas about contents, structure, planning...
All in all, a pleasant and variegated experience!
