1st Precision Polymer Materials (P2M) networking meeting was held in Strasbourg, France between December 11th and 14th. The conference was funded by the European Science Foundation (ESF) and chaired by Sebastien Lecommandoux. There were 94 attendees, who presented 34 lectures and 56 posters. The best 10 posters were selected and each presenter was awarded with 1000 euro by the ESF that they can spend towards the MRS meeting expenses in Boston, USA. The alphabetical list of the names and titles of the poster prize winners is as follows.
