ONLINE REGISTRATION IS NOW AVAILABLE! CLICK HERE TO REGISTER NOW!

The ISSON Summer Schools will give the opportunity to young researchers and early-career scientists and engineers to participate in a series of lectures on the emerging fields of Nanosciences & Nanotechnologies.

ISSON12 is divided in three complementary schools that cover the significant areas in the N&N field:

The lectures will review the current trends and knowledge in the fields of NN in general (mainly in School 1) and in parallel focus in two main Application areas, the Organic Electronics (School 2) and Nanomedicine (School 3). Furthermore state-of-the-art techniques, as well as a demonstration-tour in the laboratory facilities for developing and characterizing nanoscale materials will also be included. Top class Experts from Universities, Research Institutions and Industry worldwide will share their knowledge and experience in the format of lecture presentations. Generally, the ISSON program will be comprised by plenary and parallel sessions in order for the ISSON students to fix-and-attend lectures according to their preference.

During the ISFOE13 Symposium and NN13 Conference and depending for which event registered, the ISSON attendees will participate in the conferences.
ATTENTION: After the lectures there will be written exams and those who will succeed will get 3 ECTS credits. 

Which NANOTEXNOLOGY event(s) can you attend by participating in ISSON?

 It depends mainly on your research interests and/or curiosity and as a Bonus you automatically attend the NN13 Conference…..

• ONLY ISSON13: You automatically attend the NN13 Conference, therefore at the On-line Registration Form you can select either the Full or Student ISSON13+NN13 Registration depending on your status.

• If you wish to attend ISFOE13 Symposium and at the same time wish to participate to ISSON13, then at the On-line Registration Form you have to select either the Full, Academic or Student ISFOE13+ISSON13+NN13 Registration depending on your status. Again NN13 Conference comes as a Bonus!
