The 4th international 4D Materials Design and Additive Manufacturing Conference 2025 (4DMDA 2025) is organised by A*STAR's research institutes and universities, in collaboration with the 4D Printing Society. The event showcases the latest developments and technologies in smart materials, metamaterials, intelligent designs, modelling, additive manufacturing, and 3D/4D printing. It will address current concerns in the further development of 3D/4D printed devices and provide a forum for internationally recognised experts and young scientists working in the fields of smart materials, metamaterials, advanced design, modelling and simulation, and 3D/4D printing technologies to present their work.
This conference is hosted in person and scheduled to take place at the Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium from 8-10 July 2025. A 4D Additive Manufacturing Research Workshop (limited seats) will be held in conjunction with 4DMDA 2025 on 11 July 2025. Refer to the Documents section for more details.
