Call For Papers


CALL FOR PAPERS
The IASTED International Conference on
Nanotechnology and Applications
~NANA 2010~
November 1 – 3, 2010
Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA

SPONSOR

The International Association of Science and Technology for Development (IASTED)

CONCURRENT CONFERENCES

NANA 2010 will be held in conjunction with the IASTED International Conferences on:

* Antennas, Radar and Wave Propagation (ARP 2010)
* Robotics and Applications (RA 2010)
* Biotechnology (BioTech 2010)

LOCATION

Staying at the luxurious Le Méridien Cambridge places you in an excellent position to enjoy Cambridge and Boston, two of the most culturally rich and historic cities in the United States. All of Cambridge embodies the diversity and vitality that come from being home to Harvard and MIT, two of the world's most respected academic institutions. No surprise then that in Cambridge you will find the highest per capita number of bookstores in the world. What you might not expect is the vibrant mix of cultures evident in the wealth of adventurous dining, art, and music choices. On the streets or in lounges you are likely to hear melodious Andean pipes, scintillating jazz, and the panoramic tones of the steel drum. Cross the Charles River into Boston and within minutes you can be checking out Van Gogh originals at the Museum of Fine Arts, aquatic wonders at the New England Aquarium, or Feneuil Hall, a 250-year old marketplace where every day is a festival of delights!
