Thematic Areas

The International Conference on Self-Assembly in Confined Spaces aims to bring together some of the most active and recognised chemists, physicists, theoreticians, engineers, and biomedical researchers to discuss the use of self-assembly as a tool to design, organize and provide special functions to nanomaterials.
The program will cover:

- Molecular Self-Assembly
- Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
- Interfacial Properties
- Biomedical Applications of Self-Assembled Systems
- Advanced Characterization Techniques

Keynote lectures will be complemented with poster sessions and contributed presentations covering the aspects of the conference.
