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.
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
Industry Sponsor: STMicroelectronics

Business Re-Engineering provides insight on the state of nanotechnology from an industry perspective and highlights fundamental applications, environmental issues, and how to finance and run a successful nanotech venture. This intensive 3-day program consists of classroom style lectures, group discussions and requires completion of a mini-business proposal.
The Certified Nanotech Clean Tech Professional Program includes lectures, group projects, discussions and lab practicals, covering nano-characterization and fabrication, nanobiotechnology, thin films and photovolatics, emerging clean technologies and EPA regulations of nanomaterials. Lab practicals include hands-on training with a Scanning Electron Microscope.
Clearing the US and EU Regulatory Path to Product Approval – “What Similarities and Differences Exist and How Can Companies Manage the Hurdles?”
Learn how to navigate through the complexities and policy changes that biotech and nanotech products face today. Expert advice and case studies will provide valuable lessons on how policy and regulation is influencing technology in the US and EU and what companies can do to save time and cost throughout the process. Do regulatory agencies have the legal authority to make judgments on nanomaterials? Are they ready for this responsibility?
There is an avalanche-like increase of reports, where molecules of
nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) appear as an object of nanotechnology
research and/or as material for nano-sized devices. In many cases
scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is the most powerful and
informative research tool. Examinations as well as precise
manipulations can be performed this way. What is important when
SPM is applied to molecular level experiments? Three facets are
illustrated further.
Early Warning Inc, a developer of early warning systems that detect E.coli and other biohazards is pleased to announce the opening of its Water Products Division in Waterloo, Ontario. Early Warning is developing a wide range of detection products employing a revolutionary nanotechnology-based biosensor licensed from NASA Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley. The biosensor can detect trace amounts of specific bacteria, viruses and parasites, and help prevent the spread of potentially deadly biohazards in water, food and other contaminated sources.
