In honor and celebration of Dr. Charlie Hoyle’s life and contributions, the Polymer Science program at USM is organizing a one day technical symposium.  Speakers have been chosen from a few of the many colleagues, students, and friends who have been touched by Charlie’s knowledge, excitement, and guidance.  Topics will center around Charlie’s interests including polymer degradation, liquid crystals, photopolymerization, and ‘click’ chemistry.  The program will include a reception and poster session on Sunday, April 11th followed by a symposium and dinner on April 12th, all in Hattiesburg, MS, at the University of Southern Mississippi's Shelby F. Thames Polymer Science Research Center.
