Asia's nanotechnology scientists to gather in Singapore, Malaysia
SINGAPORE. October 4. KAZINFORM Nanotechnology scientists from some 35 universities across Asia Pacific will meet in Singapore and Malaysia over a period of 12 days from Monday. Kazinform refers to Xinhua.
The 40 camp participants will not only discuss and collaborate on nanotechnology, but also experience the cultures of their host nations.
Participants will present their research on nano-structured materials and devices, as well as discuss the impact of nanoscience and nanotechnology on society.
A substantial part of the program will also involve participants discovering more about their host nations, research- wise, economically and culturally.
The annual camp was initiated in Japan two years ago by the Asia Nano Forum (ANF) network, an organization spanning 15 countries in the Asia Pacific.
This is the first time the camp is co-hosted by two nations, Singapore and Malaysia. Kazinform cites Xinhua. See www.xinhuanet.com
