    Proposed questions for the panel:

    KINETICS
    - How can we predict the hydration kinetics of any mineral assemblage?
    - How can we predict the reactivity of a given SCM, given its composition, physical characteristics, and composition of the surrounding pore solution?

    DEGREE OF REACTION
    - How can we better quantify the degree of reaction of SCMs in hardened cement pastes?

    THERMODYNAMICS
    - What hydrated phases form during the hydration of SCMs? What are the reaction stoichiometries?
    - What are the aqueous thermodynamic relationships?

    POZZOLANIC C-S-H
    - How can we model the nanostructure of pozzolanic C-S-H?
    - What is the impact of pozzolanic C-S-H on transport?
