This committee will prepare a report that will articulate the status and promising future directions of materials research (MR) in the United States in the context of similar efforts world-wide. For this assessment, MR will be considered broadly in terms of material type, forms/structure, property, and phenomenon, as well as the full breadth of approaches to MR (e.g., experiment, theory, computation, modeling and simulation, instrument/technique development, synthesis, characterization, etc.).
