Abstract
The 33rd Australasian Polymer Symposium (33APS) was held at The Wrest Point Convention Centre, Hobart, Tasmania,12–15 February 2012, under the auspices of the Polymer Division of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI).
The APS is the flagship meeting for polymer science in Australia and, over the years, the symposium has developed a strong reputation for bringing together the latest polymer research from top international and Australian polymer scientists. 33APS welcomed several leading plenary and keynote speakers from around the world, and also a very large number –over 300 – of contributors. This year the proportion of international delegates was again nearly a third of our total number,which shows that APS is now truly an international event. The program also included several special sessions, including an Early Career Researchers Symposium and a session on innovation, which covered the very dynamic topic of knowledge transfer from academia to industry.
