SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This volume summarizes the main lectures presented at the Osaka University Macromolecular Symposium OUMS '95 on New Macromolecular Architectures and Functions, where the following three topics were discussed: (1) controlled polymerizations, (2) macromolecular organized systems, and (3) biomimetic polymers. Either of these topics in itself is a hot issue at present and frequently taken up as a main theme at a particular symposium. The present symposium invited leading scientists in these fields as guest speakers and is expected to attract interests of a significant range of readers.
