GelSympo 2009
|
Organized by Research Group on Polymer Gels
The Society of Polymer Science, Japan
|
|
This is the 8th international gel symposium organaized by Research Group
on Polymer Gels, The Society of Polymer Science, Japan(SPSJ). This symposium
will address the challenges by focusing on three target areas: 1) fundamental
science of gels, 2) role and function of gels in material science and engineering,
and 3) applications of gels. Beside coventional applications of gels in
food and cosmetics, sensors, separation systems, and optical devices, applications
in industry such as MEMS, display techniques, fuel cells, and in bio-science,
such as drug delivery, biomedical implants, tissue engineering , and biomimetic
materials are included. More than 20 excellent scientists will be invited
from Asia, Europe, and America to the symposium. Besides, contributed oral
and poster presentation will be programmed.
