SUDOE Train2 Nanomagnetism & Spintronics Workshop

CIC nanoGUNE, with the collaboration of its partners within the framework of theSUDOE region TRAIN2 project, organizes a workshop in NANOMAGNETISM AND SPINTRONICS to be held in Donostia-San Sebastián the days 22-24 of February, 2012.

The TRAIN2 project (Trans-Pyrenees Action on Advanced Infrastructures for Nanosciences and Nanotechnology) aims to establish the SUDOE region as a leading environment for research, innovation, and training in the fields of nanosciences and nanotechnology.

Recent developments in nanomagnetism and spintronics have shown the existence of new phenomena emerging at the nanoscale that are relevant for both fundamental science as well as future device applications. The workshop will be celebrated with the aim of strengthening the research in these fields among the different teams in theSUDOE region through sharing capabilities, exchanging knowledge and designing future research strategies together. These actions look towards establishing common collaborative research projects within the network partners, boosting entrepreneurship and creating an adequate scenario for interregional technology transfer. 

There will be both oral (15 min) and poster (one afternoon session) contributions. 

The set poster size is A0 format (width: 841 mm x Height: 1189 mm) Portrait
