NEBO' 09 : Nanosystem engineering and biophotonics
NEBO'09 : Nanosystem engineering and biophotonics
Co-organised by Joseph Zyss and Malcolm Buckle,
Institut d'Alembert, Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan
March 30th to April 1st 2009
Themes and objectives:
As exemplified by the title of meeting, the selected theme, Nanosystem engineering
and biophotonics, encompasses a large emerging discipline at the crossroads of
nanotechnologies and life sciences engendered by a convergence of interest and
competence between two communities, that of physics and chemistry on the one
hand and life sciences on the other. Tools and methodologies that have
revolutionised common laboratory procedures and have enormously impacted on the
perspectives of life sciences are rapidly evolving as a result of continuous new
developments in nanosciences and nanotechnologies with a notably important
contribution from photonics and advances in bio-imagery and nano-photonics.
