Symposia on Advanced Materials is to be held in Kathmandu

Kathmandu Symposia on Advanced Materials - 2012
(May 9-12)
(KaSAM 2012)

A Symposia on Advanced Materials is to held in Kathmandu on May 9-12,2012. Kathmandu symposia on Advanced Materials (KaSAM) is an IUPAC sponsered program.
The KaSAM is aimed at strengthening
networking of materials scientists from South Asian Countries with those from
rest of the world; and has the motto: Cross-Linking Science and Virtues.
The objective of the KaSAM International Conference is to provide rigorous
discussion forum for the materials scientists on recent advances, challenges
and solution paths in different areas of Materials Science and Engineering
(MSE). Polymeric Materials will form integral part of KaSAM endeavours. The
conference is hoped to be a milestone also in promoting education and
researches in the field of advanced materials in Nepal.
The KaSAM-2012 will focus on Nanostructured
and Biorelated Materials providing a platform for presentation of
innovations in MSE from academia and industries. The conference will be
accompanied by a one day Short Course: Recent Trends in Materials Science
and a one day special Workshop: All about Bamboo.
The Short Course is targeted to the
students, young researchers and new comers in the field and will give an
overview of recent developments and research trends in synthesis,
characterization and applications of new materials. The idea behind the Bamboo
Workshop is to bring the experts involved in agriculture, environmental
issues, economy and technological aspects of this nature’s wonder material
together in a common platform in order to discuss the issues such as
advancements in the bamboo science including potential utilization in
fabrication of new materials, impacts on environment.
