The meeting is meant to highlight recent advances in both the fundamental and materials aspects of CRP and includes speakers who focus on mechanisms of CRP, functionality and architectural control, biorelated polymers, hybrid materials and heterogeneous systems, and materials and industrial aspects of CRP. The compilation will describe the current state of the art of CRP and is unique in that it combines all important aspects of this important family of synthetic techniques: from synthetic procedures to rational selection of reaction components, to the understanding of the reaction mechanisms, to materials and applications. This meeting will target chemists and polymer scientists in academia, industry, and government.
