 was rescheduled due to illness.\n\n\nCoffee and Snacks Provided\n\nKAWKAB 
 TAHBOUB: Mechanical Testing as a Characterization Tool for Biomaterials\n
 \nKawkab Tahboub is a 4th year PhD student in the Faculty of Dental Medici
 ne and Oral Health Sciences at McGill under the supervision of Dr. Elizabe
 th Zimmermann and Dr. Faleh Tamimi. Her research focuses on optimizing the
  surface modification and functionalization of inert materials o improve t
 heir integration into calcium silicate cements. Her presentation explores 
 how mechanical testing techniques complement other characterization techni
 ques to help us better understand the composition and function of biologic
 al tissues\, advance diseases cure research\, and help us develop more com
 petent biomaterials.\n\nMATTHEW S. TARLING: Using Electron Backscatter Dif
 fraction (EBSD) to Reveal the Microstructure and Crystallography of Deform
 ed Geomaterials\n\nMatthew S. Tarling is a postdoc in the Department of Ea
 rth and Planetary Sciences at McGill\, working with Profs Christie Rowe an
 d Jamie Kirkpatrick. He will be joining UBC as an assistant professor in A
 ugust. He completed his PhD in 2019 at the University of Otago. His resear
 ch focuses on how rocks in the interior of the planet break and deform acr
 oss a wide range of temporal and spatial scales\, from near instantaneous 
 devasting earthquakes to the imperceptible motion of tectonic plates over 
 millions of years. In this presentation\, he will discuss how electron bac
 kscatter diffraction (EBSD)\, an electron microscopy technique\, is utilis
 ed in Earth Sciences to uncover the microstructure and crystallography of 
 rocks and reveal insights into the deformation processes of geomaterials.
