You are cordially invited to attend Nanobrücken II:  A Nanomechanical Testing Workshop, jointly presented by INM - Leibniz Institute for New Materials and Hysitron, Inc., with co-sponsorship from the JEOL company. This is the second workshop in the Nanobrücken series.

Dear Colleague: Please consider submitting your nanomechanics related abstract to Symposium 4-1 ("Nanomechanics: Beyond Modulus and Hardness") of the 47th Annual Technical Meeting of Society of Engineering Science, which takes place October 4-6, 2010 at Iowa State University, Ames, IA. The deadline for abstract submission is 5:00pm CST, Monday, June 7, 2010. The meeting's homepage can be found at www.ucs.iastate.edu/mnet/ses2010/home.html.

The Nanobrücken Nanomechanical Testing Workshop, Feb 24-26, 2010 at INM Saarbrücken in Germany, aims to bring together researchers from the international nanomechanical community in a forum that highlights both techniques and applications. The workshop features an outstanding lineup of keynote and invited speakers. We cordially invite you to attend and encourage you to participate with a contributed oral or poster presentation.

Dear Colleague:

Oral abstract submission is now closed for the Workshop on Probing the Limits of Strength; however, the deadlines for poster abstract submission (200 words or less to berkeleyworkshop09@gmail.com) and advance registration have been extended to the end of July.
