Nanoparticle Synthesis and Assembly – Last chance to register

SEM imageIt’s the last opportunity to register for our Faraday Discussion on Nanoparticle Synthesis and Assembly next month at Argonne National Laboratory, USA.

Register by the 23 March to secure your place!

The meeting takes place on 20-22 April 2015 and it is a great opportunity to get involved in discussions with outstanding researchers in this field, including Paul Alivisatos (University of California, Berkeley), Lucio Isa (ETH Zürich), Brian Korgel (The University of Texas at Austin), Peter Schurtenberger (Lund University) and Toshiharu Teranishi (Kyoto University) plus many more.

You can find full details of the programme on our website.
