      This symposium attracted 82 papers which were presented orally or as posters. Fourteen invited speakers presented state of the art reviews and aspects of future key topics in this increasingly important area of materials science. The high level of scientific presentation during the conference enhanced the aim of the symposium, which was to stimulate discussion amongst materials scientists, chemists, engineers and physicists with a common interest in this field and to disseminate knowledge of progress.

      As a result of the recent expansion of nuclear magnetic resonance in biomedicine, a number of workshops and schools have been organized to introduce the NMR principles to a wider group of biologists, radiologists, neurologists, etc. The aim of most of these courses was to provide a common vocabulary and enough information about ``pulse sequences'', relaxation times, etc. in order to facilitate the use of the various types of NMR imaging systems. However, no courses were organized for the physicists who were responsible for the origin and evolution of the ideas in this area. This Enrico Fermi school was therefore organized. The topics discussed included the theoretical interpretation and prediction of NMR signals, the study of new imaging techniques up to the building of special r.f. coils and the study of new methods for analysing NMR data in the time domain.
