Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre / Dubai World Trade centre 4-6 December 2017

Abstract Submission Deadline: 15 June 2017

Early Bird Registration deadline: 21 September 2017

The Nanotech Middle East 2017 will present focused sessions and workshops/tutorials to harness the academic and business awareness on the nanotechnology topics that are most related to the needs and requirements of the regions. A full list of these focused sessions can be found on the conference website.

Example topics include: Nanotech for Water Technologies, Nanotech for Oil and Gas, Nanotech for Energy, Nanotech for buildings and construction and Nanotech for corrosion protection

From its origin as Nanotech Dubai, the event has grown to become the Nanotech Middle East 2017 Exhibition and Conference to be held in the state-of-the-art venue, Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre (DICEC) / Dubai World Trade centre from 4 to 6 December 2017.
Nanotech Middle East 2017 conference will present a very comprehensive scientific program highlighting the latest topics and covers all frontier topics in nanotechnology. The conference includes plenary lectures and invited talks by eminent personalities from around the world in addition to contributed papers both oral and poster presentations. It brings together leading scientists, researchers, engineers, practitioners, technology developers and policy makers in nanotechnology to exchange information on their latest research progress, innovation and business opportunities. It’s among the most important events in terms of international regulatory policies and it’s opened to the participation of private companies. It’s unique venue for companies to promote equipment and technology.

The Nanotech Middle East 2017 exhibition is the gateway to the emerging and far reaching nanotechnology market in the MENASA region. A wide-ranging products, equipment and services will be displayed. A number of practical and interactive activities will run alongside the exhibition halls.

Strasbourg on 22-26 August 2017

Chairs: Alberto Bianco & Paolo Samorì

The 1st European Conference on Chemistry of Two-Dimensional Materials (Chem2DMat) will cover all areas related to 2D materials’ chemistry spanning their synthesis as well as their functionalization, using covalent and non-covalent approaches, for composites, foams and coatings, membranes, (bio-) sensing, (electro- and photo-) catalysis, energy conversion, harvesting and storage, electronics, nanomedicine, biomaterials, with sessions on the following themes:

• Synthesis, processing and multiscale characterization
• Bottom-up growth
• Covalent and non-covalent functionalization
• Synthetic two-dimensional materials
• Design of 3D functional materials from layered systems

The conference website is open for registration and abstract submission.

Online registration deadline: July 31^st

The 1st Applications of Photoactive Coordination Compounds conference, a preconference of the 22nd International Symposium on the Photophysics and Photochemistry of Coordination Compounds, will be held July 5th to the 7th in St Andrews, UK.

The Sociedad Mexicana de Materiales (SMM) will be hosting the XXVI International Materials Research Congress
(IMRC 2017) in Cancún, México, August 20-25, 2017. At XXVI IMRC 2017, Professor Peter J Skabara, Deputy Editor-in-Chief and Chair of the Journal of Materials Chemistry C, is one of the organizers of the H.1 Symposium on Advances in Organic and Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Materials for Electronics and Photonics.

The H.1 symposium will focus on an interdisciplinary approach where chemistry, physics and material engineering are combined to address the fundamental and practical aspects of organic optoelectronic materials and their integration in electronic and photonic devices.

FINAL REGISTRATION DEADLINE: June 30th 2017

SHIFT 2017 International Conference will provide a cutting-edge multidisciplinary platform to gather recent achievements by foremost researchers leading the way for spectral shaping of light to be a future key technology, from photovoltaics, photocatalysis, artificial photosynthesis and solar fuels generation to photodynamic cancer therapy, nano-thermometry and bio-imaging. Attendees will include representatives from industry, academia and the government who share common objectives both in fundamental science and in commercial applications of various spectral-shaping materials and devices. SHIFT 2017 is also a strategic opportunity for companies to establish and encourage international collaborations in a gathering with many relevant top-leading researchers in the luminescence and spectroscopy field.

Attendees will be able to meet some of the technology-based companies and scientific divisions in the Canary Islands in the fields of photonics for imaging and biomedical applications. Additionally, there will be the opportunity to visit important large scientific facilities at Tenerife like ITER Renewal Energy Institute of Tenerife and IAC Astrophysics Institute of Canary Islands.

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION (Available for posters. All requests for oral will be subject to confirmation by the Organizing Committee due to the overwhelming response and number of oral contributions received)
