On the occasion of the end of the TWEET project (August 2023), we organized a one-day workshop at Politecnico di Milano on Monday, June 5th (10:00-17:30)
The morning has been devoted to a summary of the project, with contributions from our CNR-SPIN, PoliMi and UniNa groups (especially
from our young researchers who actively worked on the project).
The afternoon has been a “Beyond TWEET” session, with a few internationally renowned experts working on correlated materials, magnetism, ferroelectricity etc., who reported their most recent interesting results (not necessarily focused on 2D-ferroelectrics) and provided inspiration for future activities and collaborations.
The invited speaker were 
- Morgan Trassin, ETH Zürich, Switzerland
- Ignasi Fina, ICMAB Barcelona, Spain
- Jagoda Slawinska, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
- Roberto Mantovan, CNR-IMM Agrate, Italy
We attracted the interest of researchers (including PhD students and young postdocs) working in the field of quantum materials, with active spin/dipolar/charge/orbital degrees of freedom.
