3rd International Conference on Applied Surface Science - ICASS 2019


The 3rd International Conference on Applied Surface Science will be held at the Pisa Congress Palace, Pisa, Italy from the 17-20 June 2019. The conference will report on and discuss current research on the role and use of surfaces in chemical and physical processes, related to catalysis, electrochemistry, energy, new/functional materials and nanotechnology. Also the various techniques and characterization methods will be discussed.
This is a significant opportunity for you to hear from leading scientists in the area and to network with colleagues in industry and academia to ensure you keep abreast of recent developments in this fast evolving field. One of the Conference Chairs is Dr. Maria Dinescu from the National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics.
