The Symposium CC will focus on "Cultural heritage-materials, techniques and knowledge perspectives on a common identity".
This Symposium intends to be a common ground where challenges and solutions in the knowledge of arts, archaeology and ancient technology can best be answered by the application of methodologies, techniques and solutions generally used in Materials Science. The Symposium sponsors an interdisciplinary exchange in expertise stimulating the development of new and improved materials related to preservation and conservation science addressing questions on weathering, restoration strategies, climate change and anthropic pressure on movable and immovable CH, with the aim to advance our understanding of material culture.
The 2018 EMRS Spring Meeting, frame of this Symposium, attracts over 2 500 people from all over the world and will be held in the Convention Centre of Strasbourg (France), from June 18 to 22, 2018.
