| ILCS |
Since 1990, the ILCS has attracted nearly 900 members in 43 countries and territories on six continents. The Society also serves as an umbrella organization for regional societies established in recent years. The Society unites scientists, engineers and students working in the broad field of fundamental and applied aspects of different liquid crystal systems, including thermotropic, lyotropic, polymer and polymer-modified liquid crystals.
The Society fosters communication among members, establishes the venue of the biennial international conferences, and publishes Liquid Crystals Today, appearing under the sponsorship of Taylor&Francis.

We look forward to continued growth of the ILCS. We very much hope that the members of the Society will continue the active exchange of ideas and encourage their colleagues to join the Society. The Society welcomes specialists and students working in non-traditional fields such as liquid crystals of biological significance.

ART CONTESTLiquid crystals are beautiful to study, foremost in the polarizing microscope. To promote the sharing of this beauty, the ILCS features a continuously on-going monthly liquid crystal art contest. Each month, the most striking liquid crystal-related picture submitted to us is selected to be specially featured on the ILCS website. Learn more here. |
