Greetings! I am posting this message on behalf of ITSC 2025 Best Paper Competition Chair, Julio Villafuerte.
Dear Thermal Spray Colleagues:
The upcoming International Thermal Spray Conference (ITSC), taking place from May 5–8, 2025, in Vancouver, Canada (https://www.asminternational.org/itsc-2025/), represents a premier opportunity for sharing and advancing technical knowledge across our Thermal Spray global community. To recognize excellence in this field, we're once again presenting awards for outstanding papers submitted to the conference.
As the coordinator for the Best Paper Award, I am reaching out to invite you to join our judging panel. We welcome professionals with technical expertise in Thermal Spray, whether through research or extensive experience. Membership in ASM-TSS is not required-just a passion for the field and an eye for innovation. If you're interested, please let me know at Julio.Villafuerte@cntrline.com.
Each judge will evaluate a set of up to a maximum of ten (10) papers, and judging criteria will be shared via email once the panel is finalized. This role offers you early access to cutting-edge work and provides an excellent way to stay engaged with the latest advancements, even if attending ITSC 2025 isn't in your plans.
Don't miss this chance to shape the future of Thermal Spray research. Please reach out if you'd like to be involved! If you know of colleagues who might also be interested, please feel free to forward this invitation-the more qualified judges, the stronger our selection process.
Warm regards,
Julio Villafuerte, PhD, P.Eng,
