National Conference on NanoMaterials Science, Technology and Applications (NAMASTA)
(November 10-11, 2017)
The conference
Nanomaterials constitute a bridge between atomic, molecular and bulk materials. They exhibit unique size and shape dependent properties, distinguished from their bulk counterparts. Wide variety of such properties find applications across all the areas of science, such as chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering. This emerging interdisciplinary field of science and technology has created great excitement and expectations in the current century. The conference aims to provide a forum to the young researchers to share and discuss their research findings in various sub-areas of the theme. Moreover, the interactions with the leading scientists in the country will highly motivate the students and early stage researchers to address many unsolved issues in this frontier field of research.
