Scope
The International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (WPI-MANA), as its name implies, is attempting to create a new paradigm for materials science, called “nanoarchitectonics”, based on an innovative nanotechnology. For this purpose, WPI-MANA has held the MANA International Symposium every year to discuss the current status and the future perspective of materials science based on the state-of-the-art nanotechnology together with many distinguished scientists and young scientists from around the world.
In the 13th MANA International Symposium (jointly organized with ICYS: International Center for Young Scientists), we design the symposium to overview present status and future prospects of “New Trends in Materials Nanoarchitectonics”. In addition to keynote and invited speakers, the researchers from MANA and ICYS will present their latest findings for extensive discussion for future.
We hope many scientists, researchers and students who are interested in materials science and technology will join this symposium and obtain fresh inspiration from the talks and discussions towards the future.
国際ナノアーキテクトニクス研究拠点（WPI-MANA）は、その名が示す通り、革新的ナノテクノロジーを活用して材料科学の新しいパラダイム「ナノアーキテクトニクス」の創出を推進しています。そのために、WPI-MANAはMANA国際シンポジウムを毎年開催し、最先端のナノテクノロジーに立脚した材料科学の現状と将来を、多くの著名な科学者や若い研究者と議論する機会を提供しています。
第13回目となるMANA国際シンポジウムは若手国際研究拠点（ICYS）と協力して、材料のナノアーキテクトニクスにおける新しい潮流について議論する予定です。様々な分野で目覚ましい活躍をされている基調講演者、招待講演者、MANA、ICYSの研究者との議論を通じて、将来を見据えた研究の現状と将来を見通します。
本シンポジウムの講演や議論が、参加される科学者、研究者、学生他の皆様の、今後の斬新なアイデアの着想に繋がれば幸いです。
