NanoMetrology 2020 International Conference and Exhibition

24-26 June, 2020, Paris, France

The 6th edition of the NanoMetrology international conference and exhibition – NanoMetrology 2020 will be held from 24 to 26 June 2020 in Paris, France, jointly to Nanotech France 2020 and NanoMatEn 2020.

NanoMetrology 2020 is an ideal platform for new collaborations and fresh ideas: connecting physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and engineers form academia and industry to present, share, and divulge new methods, techniques and instrumentations, for metrology and characterization of nanomaterials, nanosystems, and nanodevices at the nanometer scale.

Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of this exciting event and submit your abstracts now for more than 250 oral presentations and large poster sessions within – NanoMetrology 2020 following sessions and topics:

• Characterisation at the nanoscale
• Methodologies for the quantitative characterization of physical and chemical parameters of nanomaterials (AFM, STM, SEM, TEM, Mass spectrometry, etc)
• Extension and standardization of characterization Methodologies at the nanometer scale (engineered nanoparticles, nanobiotechnologies, nanoelectronics, thin films/nanocoatings, etc)
• Definition and realization of standards for nanometer scale characterizations (reference materials, measurement standards, etc)
• Divulgation of good laboratory practice and traceability in nanoscale metrology
• Modelling and simulations at the nanoscale
• Nanosafety/ Nanotoxicity; Sustainable nanomanufacturing; Environmental Metrology, Biomedical/phamaceutical (Eco-toxicological, Clinical) Metrology, Food Metrology, etc

More information and registration

DRA symposium
Nanomedicine is a relatively new field that is currently gaining steam and is expected to contribute to the future of health care and personalized medicine in a significant way. At the University of Copenhagen and other Copenhagen-based universities, biotechnology companies and health related institutes, there is a significant amount of research going on in the nanomedicine area. To make these efforts more visible, allow for collaborative projects, and share the available resources, we are organizing the already third Copenhagen Nanomedicine Day 2019. It will take place on Monday, November 4, 2019.

In addition to local leaders in Nanomedicine, we will also have a few international speakers. They include

Professor Willem Mulder, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, US Therapeutic targeting of innate immunity with nanobiologics
Professor Stefaan de Smedt, University of Ghent, Belgium Cytosolic delivery of bio-therapeutics: the struggle with biological barriers goes on
Professor Quentin Pankhurst, Director, Institute of Biomedical Engineering, University College London, UK Interstitial dosage limits for nanoscale medicines and agents
Dr. Kathy Saatchi, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada Targeting Rheumatoid Arthritis Using Nanomedicines

Programme
The final programme has been made – check it out here.

Poster session
There will also be a poster session at the end of the day, with 3 poster prizes. It is still possible to submit extra abstracts for posters – see the template here:  Template for Abstract

Participation at the Copenhagen Nanomedicine Day 2019 is free to all, thanks to a grant from the Drug Research Academy and the Lundbeck Foundation, and we will provide you with all the food and even beer during the poster session at the end of day. However, you do have to register online – but the excellent talks make it worthwhile. Please submit your 1-page abstract also during the online registration.

Online registration and abstract submission 

The symposium is arranged on behalf of the graduate programme in pharmaceutical sciences, Drug Research Academy, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, by Professor Urs Häfeli, Department of Pharmacy, and co-funded by the Lundbeck Foundation.

Participation is free of charge and open for attendance by all interested parties.

Sign up for the unique joint conference that brings together the Annual Meeting for the Material and Surface section at the Swedish Chemical Society and Annual Workshop for the Biofilms – Research Center for Biointerfaces. The program will be inclusive while reflecting surface and materials chemistry at the cutting edge. It will emphasize the scientific diversity of the field with contributions from academia and industry. Members of Nano Med North sign up for the conference for free by using the link below.
