Due to the limitations and costs of animal experimentation there is a great deal of research being carried out on finding viable and effective alternatives. This conference will highlight some of the potential applications in nanotechnology in reducing animal experiments whilst maintaining safety for patients and consumers.

The Conference will be of particular interest to those in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and other industry sectors

Applying understanding at the nanoscale to improving achievement of the ‘three Rs’
...replacement, refinement and reduction

Industry and Academia leaders gather with DOD and DOE officials to create a path for rapid nano-commercialization.

Animal testing is costly and there is a great deal of research on finding viable and effective alternatives (new methods that refine existing tests by minimizing animal distress

The use of nanoscale materials is constantly expanding to play a role in an ever increasing number of industries. This can be as the actual product (e.g. electronics, packaging), as a nanocomposite, as an active or functional material, or as part of the manufacturing process (such as a substrate for biomaterials).

The conference focuses on the state-of-the-art research and development in Micro- and Nano-scale phenomena, devices, systems, manufacturing, as well as the commercialization of Micro- and Nano-technologies. The conference will consist of plenary talks, invited talks, contributed oral and poster presentations, and exhibitions and will provide opportunities for communication and collaboration between industry and academia.

COMS2008: The Premier Conference on Micro-Nanotechnology Commercialization Education!

The Annual SPIE/BACUS Symposium is the premier worldwide technical conference and exhibition for the photomask industry.

The Nano-Net conference positions itself at the intersection of two worlds, namely, emerging nano-technologies on one-side, and network/communication theory on the other side. The standing question that this conference will address is: What are the new communication paradigms that derive from the transition from micro- to nano-scale devices? The related degrees of freedom and constraints associated with these new technologies will change our notions about efficient network and system design. Nano-Net provides a multi-disciplinary forum for the discussion of new techniques in modeling, design, simulation, and fabrication of network and communication systems at the nano-scale.

Sponsors: Create-Net, ICST, EU (IST-FET), ENIAC
