We are pleased to announce the third Nanomath conference, to be held in Toulouse, 27-30 June 2016.

(registration deadline 10 June 2016, all participants need to be registered by creating an account and specifying whether they whish to make a contribution poster/oral)

Nanotechnology is a rapidly growing and exciting research area that is constantly issuing new challenges. Despite extensive research in this field, many breakthroughs and advances are the result of trial and error, since the mathematical framework and appropriate solution techniques which could provide a theoretical understanding often do not exist. Started in 2012 the purpose of the Nanomath conferences is to bring together mathematicians, chemists, physicists and engineers to explore the potential for mathematicians and experimental scientists to gain a better insight into the workings of the nanoworld.
