  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sponsors: Create-Net, ICST, EU (IST-FET), ENIAC&lt;br /&gt;
Industry Sponsor: STMicroelectronics&lt;/p&gt;

For the last decade, there is a drastic change in education due to rapid growth and emergence of new technologies like Information technology, Bio-technology and Nano-technology. Technology changes due to emergence of new technologies, and the changes are so fast that they become obsolete in no time. Therefore, in this changing world of technologies we have to tune our educational systems so as to address the new sciences and technologies to compete with the global scenario. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nano-technology is an emerging area. It is in the infancy stage and will change the world. Nano-technology is going to be the key area for 21st century. Considering the importance and relevance of this new scientific discipline we have decided to set up an `Amity Institute of Nano-technology. This institute happens to be the first in the Country. We are proud of sowing the seeds of a New Science and Technology oriented towards higher learning and understanding of new materials at atomic and molecular dimensions. The institute will generate and utilise this new science through teaching, training &amp;amp; research. We expect that the world class scientists will be attracted to work in this sole Institute of the country.&lt;/p&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Andor Technology plc (Andor) will be exhibiting at Pittcon in the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, New Orleans, LA, from March 3-6 at &lt;b&gt;Booth # 4104&lt;/b&gt;. The company will be highlighting their full range of solutions for spectroscopy and the breadth of their OEM capabilities. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company will take the opportunity to feature the &lt;b&gt;Shamrock-750&lt;/b&gt;; the newest long focal length dual-port spectrograph with scanning capabilities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Designed to perform to peak efficiency with Andor’s spectrographs, the company’s industry-leading range of cameras will also be on display. This includes the &lt;b&gt;Newton&lt;/b&gt;, the world’s finest EMCCD camera for spectroscopy with USB 2.0 connectivity, low noise electronics, multi-MHz and kHz readout, up to 95% peak Quantum Efficiency (QE), and TE cooling to -100°C, and the &lt;b&gt;iDus InGaAs detector&lt;/b&gt;, with high sensitivity and high resolution offering TE cooling down to -85°C, USB 2.0 interface, 1.7 µm and 2.2 µm sensor options, and 512 or 1024 element linear photodiode arrays (PDA) for NIR Spectroscopy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The booth will be staffed by a number of Andor’s application specialists who will be more than willing to explain the finer points of the equipment, so stop by &lt;b&gt;booth # 4104&lt;/b&gt; to discuss how Andor’s Technology can help you!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The company&#039;s range of CCD and intensified CCD camera systems are used throughout the world for academic, industrial and government research across a wide range of fields such as biotechnology, physics and chemistry. Using Andor products these customers can break new ground by performing experiments that were previously considered impossible. Independently conducted customer research confirms that Andor’s low light solutions are considered world beating. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Established in 1989, Andor&#039;s Corporate Headquarters are in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Operating in a global market, Andor&#039;s US Headquarters opened in Connecticut in 1997. Andor has regional sales offices in Europe and the US. Andor Japan, established in August 2000, handles the company&#039;s Asia / Pacific Operations.  More recently in December 2006, the company opened its first representative office in Beijing, China.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Andor sells its products globally to academic, research and OEM markets directly, through distributors and value added resellers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company successfully listed onto the London Stock Exchange’s AIM market and commenced dealings in its Ordinary Shares in December 2004 (AND).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;To create new ways to diagnose disease, monitor health, and build enabling polymer electronics, the center merges new technologies from nanoscience, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), polymer and ambient intelligence with genomics and molecular biology. This fusion allows for the creation of novel sensor systems with a broad range of commercial applications. These sensors have application in drug and vaccine delivery systems and in clinical and biological reaction-control devices for diverse industrial settings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The center strives to foster the vast potential of nanobioscience through the integration of interdisciplinary research developments in biologics and technological devices.&lt;br /&gt;
Its researchers apply their knowledge in the development of integrated microfluidic “lab-on-a-chip” platforms and advanced optical and electronic sensor arrays for the detection and analysis of biomolecules. This has application in the pharmaceutical, personal care and biodefense industries. A major goal for the center is for rapid commercialization of its research through productive interactions with the industrial and life sciences communities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The center’s teams already have demonstrated considerable proficiency in:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * Biochips for genomics/proteomics&lt;br /&gt;
    * Microfluidics and microanalytical technology&lt;br /&gt;
    * Nanooptics and nanosensors&lt;br /&gt;
    * Atomic and molecular technology&lt;br /&gt;
    * Nanosystems design and fabrication&lt;br /&gt;
    * Microscale fluid dynamics modeling&lt;br /&gt;
    * Hybrid nanoelectronics processing and “labfab” prototyping&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition, the center’s skills in bioassay development and polymer-based processing leverage its product development capabilities (for example, in Quality Systems, International Organization for Standardization and Food and Drug Administration compliance).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Center for Environmental Biotechnology focuses on developing microbiological systems that capture or develop renewable resources and also prevent or clean up environmental pollution. Our team combines engineering approaches with microbiology and chemistry to reclaim polluted water and generate energy from waste substances. Center researchers combine engineering with microbiology, molecular biology, and chemistry in order to gain an integrated understanding of how microbial ecosystems work and can be controlled to reclaim polluted water, generate energy from waste substances, and improve the public health and sustainability.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Microorganisms, as part of their normal life, do things that provide services to society and improve environmental quality. They biodegrade contaminants that pollute water, air or soil. They transform waste materials into valuable renewable resources. All of this they do in natural communities of different types of microorganisms living and working together. The microorganisms, the communities, and the services are the subjects for the Center for Environmental Biotechnology.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Center contains approximately 7,500 sq. ft. of state-of-the-art laboratories, computing facilities, and offices. The Center performs research that ranges from fundamentals of biochemistry, genomics, and microbial ecology to field testing of technologies it develops. The Center’s strategy is to integrate basic science with engineering and fundamentals with applications in all aspects of its research.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first step toward success within the Center for Environmental Biotechnology is being able to “think like the microorganisms,” which means performing scientific research to understand what the microorganisms do and what constitutes a good environment in which they can do it. “Thinking like the microorganisms” demands a deep understanding of the microbial communities. Fortunately, we have powerful new tools to help us analyze these intriguing organisms.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Among the tools we can use are molecular methods that probe the genetic information of the microorganisms in the community. By targeting different types of DNA or RNA, these tools can identify which microorganisms are present, what reactions they can perform, what reactions they are performing, and which physical and metabolic interactions are occurring.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We know that microbial communities profoundly alter their environment by carrying out chemical reactions. Chemical tools measure the effects of microbial activity. Using these tools, we are able to understand how the microorganisms process chemicals to gain energy and grow (their biochemistry) and how those reactions alter the geochemical conditions of the environment in which the microbial community lives and works.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another set of tools includes mathematical models that systematically and quantitatively represent the community members, their reactions, and how they affect each other and their environment. Modeling uses computers, and it is a tool for integrating different types of knowledge. When we integrate information from all the tools, we gain a deep understanding of the biological and chemical activity in microbial communities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The second step toward success is designing technologies that “work for the microorganisms so that they work for us.” The environmental biotechnologist provides conditions so that the “right” microorganisms – the ones that perform the right services – thrive and stay within the community. This is the natural, ecologically based recipe for success with environmental biotechnologies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Single molecule biophysics lies at the confluence of molecular medicine and nanotechnology. The Center uses nanotechnology to study physical processes on which life is based using the simplest model systems — those that exist on the level of a single molecule or several molecules. By doing this, researchers plan to gain a better understanding of gene regulation, molecular signaling and molecular transport in cells that will lead to improved biosensors and other new technologies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Center for Single Molecule Biophysics seeks to better understand the physical basis of life by studying the individual molecules that comprise living cells. Researchers at the Center are using scanning probe methods to measure and manipulate individual molecules. Our premise is that single molecules are simple enough to be molded accurately with computer simulations, yet complex enough to reflect the variations that are important to their function.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Center is also dedicated to advancing the latest techniques for research on the single molecule scale and to translating discoveries into new tools and new applications that are relevant to promoting health and combating disease. With a clearer understanding of the individual components that comprise integrated living systems, researchers are better able to grasp the many complex interactions between gene products (molecules) that cause disease. By learning from nature’s repertoire of experiments on its own ”nanomachines” researchers at the Center are figuring out how to craft components for machinery of undreamt-of complexity and sophistication.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our research program is inherently interdisciplinary. The tools are in the domain of engineering and chemistry: nanostructures that connect to molecules and instruments that manipulate and measure at the single molecule level. The interactions and modeling come from physics: understanding the quantum phenomena that dominate interactions on this length scale and building simple models of the complex many-particle phenomena. The systems come from biology: molecules involved in gene expression (signaling and the control of processes in living cells). Finally, the building of molecular model systems and the controlled assembly of nanostructures is dependent upon chemistry, biochemistry and materials chemistry).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The recent evolution in nanotechnology has given us new tools with which researchers can imagine measure, manipulate and modify individual molecules, one at a time. Previous probes of biological molecules, such as X-ray crystallography, inferred their properties by averaging billions of molecules. However, single molecule studies now show that, outside the confines of a crystal, proteins fluctuate through a series of very different structures. Therefore, the crystal structures are often not only inappropriate, but they fail to capture the set of states that the protein uses to do its job.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For example, adhesion proteins must adopt one structure when a cell rests and another (non-sticky) structure when the cell moves. But molecules are in a state of constant fluctuation, with, on average, more of them in the ‘sticky’ state when the cell rests, changing to more in the ‘non-sticky’ state when the cells move. The only way to capture the structural changes that drive the process is to study just one molecule as it jumps between the two states. Thus, single molecule methods are often the only way to follow the changes in structure that rival the fundamental processes of life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;What does Arizona State University have to offer?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arizona State University is pleased to announce the Professional Science Master’s (PSM) in  Nanoscience degree program.  The program at ASU is part of the national PSM organization featured at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sciencemasters.com&quot; title=&quot;http://www.sciencemasters.com&quot;&gt;http://www.sciencemasters.com&lt;/a&gt; and is listed at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gradschools.com/&quot; title=&quot;http://www.gradschools.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.gradschools.com/&lt;/a&gt; under a wide range of subject categories. It is also part of the Western Region Graduate Program (&lt;a href=&quot;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&quot; title=&quot;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&quot;&gt;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&lt;/a&gt;) - a program  which allows students from most western states to pay fees at in-state tuition rates.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is the link between business/industry and ASU?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The collaboration between industry and Arizona State University is very robust. The PSM in Nanoscience program is no exception.  A PSM Advisory Board that includes representatives from organizations across the region will help maintain the link between the program and industry needs.  Additionally, the Advisory Board will foster opportunities for student internships and support and influence the program in other ways beneficial to both parties. With an ever-increasing demand for nanoscience and nanotechnology, the time for professional growth in this area is at hand.  Please take time to consider furthering your/your staff’s education and expertise through the Professional Science Master’s in Nanoscience degree at ASU. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is a Professional Science Masters Degree in Nanoscience?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program exists as a partnership between the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry &amp;amp; Biochemistry to meet the growing need for skilled nanoscience professionals in industry both regionally and nationally. Although the program is ideal for  recent science graduates, it is especially tailored for working professionals who wish to retrain into nanoscience, nanotechnology, and related areas.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why a degree in nanoscience?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nanoscience is a prime target of both federal funding and high-tech industrial investment.  It is expected to have profound impact on a broad range of technologies such as nanoelectronics, biosensors and nanomedicine over the coming decade.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How long does the program take?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PSM degree consists of a 30 credit accelerated (cohort-based) curriculum.  A full time program can be completed in 12 months (including two summer sessions).  A part-time two-year program allows prospective students and their employers flexibility in scheduling studies. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does this program fit my needs?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PSM program at ASU has three recommended program options:             Nanomaterials &amp;amp; Nano-electronics, Biophysics &amp;amp; Bionanotechnology, and Biophysics, Biochemistry, and Sensors. You choose the emphasis that works best for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where can I find additional information?&lt;/p&gt;

BICAMN encourages and coordinates projects that reflect the two facets of nanoscience mentioned above. Among our projects are those that probe the structure and properties of nanoscale materials and assemblies with novel electromagnetic and optical properties, as well as those that explore the structure and applications of variously shaped nanoscale particles or surface films. Within our materials fabrication effort (the Marie Curie Training Site for the Fabrication of Nanoscale Materials) are projects that deal with unique fabrication methodologies, including both self-assembly and directed construction approaches. They afford unique opportunities for creating superstructures with unique chemical or biological features. They provide for unique catalytic activity and/or allow for useful encapsulation and/or permit direct interaction (often with specific recognition) with other materials of sub-micron dimensions.&lt;/p&gt;
