Symposium in honor of Frans Spaepen Honorary Doctorate ETH Zurich - "From colloidal materials to metallic glasses"
Frans Spaepen was bestowed with an honorary doctorate at the ETH Day in 2020. Because this celebration only occurred online during the Corona pandemic, we now have organized a one-day symposium to celebrate the event. The symposium will end with the Staudinger-Durrer Lecture, presented by Prof. Spaepen, and his honoring with the Staudinger-Durrer Prize by the rector of ETH Zurich, Prof. Günther Dissertori.
The Staudinger-Durrer Prize is named after two major scientists in the field who emerged from ETH Zurich in the 20th century: Hermann Staudinger (Nobel Prize, 1953), who founded the field of macromolecular chemistry, and Robert Durrer, who laid the foundation for oxygen-based metallurgy, the so-called LD (Linz-Durrer) process.
