On behalf of the International Union of Materials Research Society – International Conference on Electronic Materials 2018 to be held from August 19 ~ 24, 2018 at Daejeon Convention Center in Daejeon, Korea, it is my great honor and pleasure to cordially invite you to IUMRS-ICEM 2018 Conference. As you are probably aware of, IUMRS-ICEM 2018 is a continuation in the series of the conferences among the International MRS Members, and the conference of 2018 is supported by the Material Research Society of Korea (MRS-K). The program of IUMRS-ICEM 2018 consists of 6 symposia; Electronic Materials, 2D Materials, Soft Electronics, Functional Materials, Energy and Energy Storage, and Bio-Engineering. Since the first conference was commenced, this meeting has become a fundamental ground to exchange quality results and ideas provided by the researchers and scientists within universities, industries and institutes. Furthermore, it also provides a forum to present the cutting-edge research outputs for future collaborations which would help both students and researchers within their future research studies and works to be conducted. Hence, I strongly believe that the individuals actively engaged in materials research and developments are greatly encouraged to participate in the conference and gain academic insights they have desired. The hosting city of IURMS-ICEM 2018, Daejeon has grown into a world-class science and cultural city as a result of both cultural heritage and metropolitan developments. I eagerly awaits your participation in IURMS-ICEM 2018 and looks forward to welcoming you in Daejeon, Korea. I am looking forward to meeting you in Daejeon on August 20-24, 2018. With your active participation and support, this congress will achieve a resounding success. I firmly believe that IURMS-ICEM 2018 in Daejeon will be an academically enriching, socially enjoyable, and truly memorable experience for all participants.
