Dear all,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the Mini Interdisciplinary Student Symposium, we are honored and happy to welcome you to this event which will be held on March 26^th, 2021 virtually at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières. In this second edition, we are fortunate to welcome the huge number of researchers from various institutions in Vietnam, Brésil, Tunisia, Morocco, France, Norway and Canada. The M.I.S.S 2021 is an opportunity to create exchanges of research work between partner countries with Québec. It is a great honor to welcome you to this event at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières. This year, the event is focused on materials, energy, and their applications.

We thank all visitors and exhibitors who share their work and research activities in chemistry, biochemistry, physics, material sciences and so forth. The notion of community is important for us, because it is the basis of the scientific process and the verification by our colleagues in vast fields of expertise. M.I.S.S 2021 shows that the scientific community has a real spirit of sharing and expanding knowledge that transcends borders.

We warmly thank the Ministère des Relations internationales et de la Francophonie, the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, the Institut de Recherche sur l’Hydrogène, the Department of chemistry, biochemistry and physics, Prolab Technolub and the DuongLab team for their supports to make this event a success.
