Conference on Nanostructured Materials Place: City University of Hong Kong Dates: 24-29
June, 2018 Conference website: http://www.nano2018.org/ Conference
Description:NANO Conference, spearheaded by International Committee on Nanostructured
Materials (ICNM), has been acting as a traditional meeting place for most nanomaterials
researchers, where the state-of-the-art research and latest advanced findings in the field are
presented. A range of topics at the frontier of knowledge in the field of nanomaterials will
be discussed and a wide number of scientific talks will be given by distinguished scientists
in plenary and parallel sessions. ICNM initiated the first flagship event in Cancun, Mexico, in
1992. Since this inception, 13 top-level biennial flagship events have led an impactful
existence across the globe —in Stuttgart, Germany in 1994; in Kona, Hawaii, USA in 1996; in
Stockholm, Sweden in 1998; in Sendai, Japan in 2000; in Orlando, USA in 2002; in
Wiesbaden, Germany in 2004; in Bangalore, India in 2006; in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2008;
in Rome, Italy, in 2010; in Rhodes, Greece in 2012; in Moscow, Russia, in 2014; and in
Quebec, Canada, in 2016. Thematic sessions: · Nanostructure in High Entropy Alloys
· Nanomaterials for Sensors, Flexible Electronics and Nanocomposites
· Nanomaterials for Energy and Environmental Applications · Bulk and Gradient
