Nanotechnology: From Materials to Medicines and their impact on Society

Symposium on Nanotechnology to be held on 25th March 2017 at the Birla Industrial and Technological Museum (BITM), Kolkata, India.
The Centre for Interdisciplinary Research and Education (CIRE) along with its collaborators, the West Bengal Academy of Science and Technology, BITM and Adamas University are organizing a One Day Symposium on “Nanotechnology: From Materials to Medicines and their impact on Society” to bring the world of nanotechnology to the forefront of consciousness of the technical and lay public.
Renowned scientists and technologists will provide a brief but illuminating overview of the topics and scholars will present their findings in poster presentations.
Target audience for the symposium will be scientists and technologists from academia and technical institutes and firms, post-graduate and undergraduate students, research scholars and interested public.
The CIRE had held two such symposia previously – one on “GM Crops” in 2015 and another on “Science Behind Homeopathy” in 2016, both of which evoked good response.
