The Institute for Materials Science hosts workshops and conferences to support the implementation of the Laboratory's materials strategy and promotes a strong sense of community among the Laboratory's materials researchers.
The Institute for Materials Science convened a virtual workshop “20 years of the 115's: past, present, and future” on November 9th, 10th, and 12th, 2020 to review what we have learned from the 115 system, to learn the most recent developments, and to identify the open challenges for the future.

The Institute for Materials Science is convening a “quantum matter working group” to work on emerging problems in quantum materials. We expect to build a fun and creative atmosphere for generating new ideas.
Los Alamos National Laboratory has rich and diverse efforts in quantum materials including the 100 T pulsed magnetic field facility, the correlated f-electron materials group, ultrafast optics, topological materials, quantum information science, theory division, the Center for Integrated Nano-Technologies, the Center for Non-Linear Studies, and the IMS.
Topical discussions will focus on research opportunities and problems in quantum entanglement in many-body systems and strongly correlated 2D materials.
Additive manufacturing (AM), commonly known as 3D printing, is a rapidly-evolving technology with the potential to revolutionize the design and manufacturing of complex parts. Additive manufacturing offers many advantages, including design freedom (e.g., customizability, geometric complexity), reduced materials and costs, and faster production times compared to traditional manufacturing methods (e.g., casting, machining).
The inaugural Workshop was held at Los Alamos National Laboratory, July 1 and 2, 2024
