Support of Thirteenth Conference on the Foundations of Nanoscience (FNANO 2016)
Abstract
The objective of the 2016 Foundations of Nanoscience Conference is to advance basic research in the area of self-assembly and to foster interdisciplinary research that spans chemistry, biochemistry, physics, computer science, mathematics, and various engineering disciplines including MEMS/NEMS systems. The meeting will also promote collaboration in education and research among academia, industry and government participants. The 2016 Foundations of Nanoscience (FNANO) Conference will be held April 11-14, 2016 in Snowbird, Utah. The common focus for the FNANO Conference is self-assembly, which many nanoscientists believe has enormous potential to revolutionize nanofabrication. The conference will include invited presentations by distinguished nanoscientists as well as contributed posters and open discussion periods to enhance attendee interaction, with the goal of creating a vibrant intellectual community in the area of self-assembly. The scientific program includes 13 Tracks on topics of emerging interest, including DNA Nanostructures , Protein & Viral Nanostructures, Integrated Chemical Systems, Principles & Theory of Self-Assembly, Self-Assembly Across Scales, Computational Tools for Self-Assembly, Synthetic Biology, Nucleic Acid Nanostructures in Vivo, DNA & Analytical Methods, Biomedical Nanotechnology, Inorganic Nanoscale Devices, Nanophotonics & Super-resolution, and Molecular Motors. The high quality of the conference is ensured by 1) track chairs who are responsible for selection of excellent presenters with new results to share, 2) vigorous discussions managed by the track chairs, and 3) annual review of and changes in the track topics to keep them fresh and up-to-date.
