| The International
Meeting on Developments in Materials, Processes and Applications
of Emerging Technologies (MPA) to be held in Manchester (UK)
will be the third event of the MPA meeting series. The first
meeting (MPA-2007) was in 2007 and held at the University of
Ulster (Belfast), which officially launched the Society of Nanoscience
and Nanotechnology to the international community. The second
meeting in 2008 (MPA-2008)
was held at the University of Cambridge (UK).
After its success as MPA-2007 and MPA-2008, MPA-2009 will continue
the aim to attract delegates from academia, industry and research
institutes involved with applied research and development. In
doing so, the event will provide a platform for academics and
industrialists to network, exchange ideas and gain new insights
related to the technical theme of the conference.
We look forward to welcoming you at MPA-2009 in Manchester!
