We're excited to announce that registration for the UK Metamaterials Network Conference 2024 is open now! Looking forward to seeing lots of faces, old and new there. metamaterials.network/uk-metamateria…

Mazi Jalaal and I are searching for two enthusiastic postdocs interested in fascinating interplay between physics, mechanics, and beyond! interested? apply by end of March and Don's hesitate to contact us! RT is appreciated vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/Postdo…

🥳Excited to announce that we have been awarded £2.54m of NetworkPlus funding from Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. This will allow us to build on the initial support from EPSRC and Dstl which formed the original UK Metamaterials Network. For more info, follow the link here: metamaterials.network/ukmmn-launch/

Anton Souslov is the co-project lead at Cambridge University. He said: “Many researchers in Cambridge and the UK work across different sub-areas of metamaterials research. One ambition is to bring these groups together and to find new directions for fundamental metamaterials science.”
