His generosity has ensured that SMST can continue to recognize new, promising research in shape memory alloys on a biennial basis in conjunction with our conference. At each conference, we will recognize the new grant recipient and hear from the previous recipient on their research. Dr. Duerig and two other SMST executive committee members will join the Executive Director of the ASM Materials Education Foundation in the selection process. Please join us in thanking Dr. Duerig for his outstanding commitment to the field.<\/p><p>Sincerely,<\/p><p>Othmane Benafan<\/p><p>Immediate Past President, SMST<\/p><p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/files_smst\/pdf\/AMP_Duering_p62_Final_updated.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Duerig Endows SMST Founders’ Grant<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SMST Founders’ Grant The applications and guidelines for the 2026 SMST Founders\u2019 Grant can be accessed here.
