Journal of Materials Chemistry B, alongside many other RSC journals, were delighted to sponsor a poster prize at UK Colloids 2023. UK Colloids 2023 is the fourth colloid science conference in this series. It continues to be jointly organised by the RSC’s Colloid and Interface Science Group and the SCI’s Colloid and Surface Science Group and will provide a perfect opportunity for UK and international researchers interested in colloid and interface science to meet, present and discuss issues related to current developments in this field.
The poster prizes were sponsored by Journal of Materials Chemistry B, Materials Horizons, Nanoscale Horizons, Nanoscale, Nanoscale Advances, Materials Advances, RSC Applied Interfaces, RSC Applied Polymers, Soft Matter, Chemical Science and RSC Books.
