                The Laboratory for Surface Modification (LSM) will host the Seventeenth Annual LSM Symposium on Thursday February 27, 2003.  The symposium will focus on experimental and theoretical studies of surfaces, interfaces and their applications, as well as nanoscale phenomena.   We will include both oral and poster presentations; contributed talks will be 15 minutes long (including short discussion).  The program will include invited "Highlight Presentations".

        This meeting will provide an excellent opportunity for Rutgers graduate students and postdocs to present their work in a friendly atmosphere.  Of course, faculty members are welcome to speak as well.
