Physics Nobel Prize Committee Member to Offer Keynote as Event Will Convene Leading International Researchers and Stakeholders from Academia, Industry and Government
Khalifa University of Science and Technology today announced it will be hosting – the 17th International Conference on Nanostructured Materials for the first time in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Department of Culture and Tourism, to highlight advancements in nanostructured materials and facilitate networking among leading global researchers.
Scheduled from 3-8 November 2024, NANO 2024 is a premier biennial international conference for leading researchers from academia, industry, and government to discuss and present cutting-edge developments in nanostructured materials, nanomechanics, AI in nanotechnology, as well as nanofluids. The NANO 2024 conference in Abu Dhabi will feature plenary talks from world renowned experts including a Nobel Physics committee member, keynote and invited speakers, as well as 16 technical themes.
More than 500 papers have been received by the selection committee with nearly 59% from the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. These papers have over 1,200 authors, out of which 533 are from the UAE, 222 from India, 74 from Saudi Arabia, 59 from Italy, 39 from Qatar and 30 from Japan.
Dr. Daniel Choi, Local Chair, NANO 2024, said: “Khalifa University is delighted to partner with various stakeholders to bring the NANO 2024 conference to the UAE and the MENA region for the first time. The conference will serve as a perfect platform to build new connections and presents a valuable opportunity to learn about new trends in nanostructured materials and applications. With live demonstration and hands-on workshops led by world-class international researchers, NANO 2024 will cover a broad spectrum of topics and specialties.”
Some of the focus areas of the conference will include Additively Manufactured Nanomaterials,Nanocomposites and Nano-mechanics, Nanomaterials for Electronics, Sensors and Flexible Electronics, Nanomaterials for Water and Energy, Catalysis, and Environmental Applications, Nano-biomaterials and Nano-bionic & Biomedical Applications, Advanced Nano characterization, Magnetic Nanomaterials, Nanomaterials for Photonics and Optoelectronics, Carbon Nanomaterials, and 2D Materials.
Papers presented at the 17th ICNM-NANO2024 will be selected to be published by the Royal Society of Chemistry under the theme ‘NANO 2024 – Nanostructured Materials for Energy, Bio, Photonics, and Electronics Applications’, which will include those published on both nanoscale and nanoscale advances.
