29/06-01/07/2022 - 2nd International Conference on Aerogels for Biomedical and Environmental Applications (Athens)

The 2nd International Conference on Aerogels for Biomedical and Environmental Applications will be held from June 29 to July 1, 2022, in Athens, Greece.

The meeting is organized by the AERoGELS COST Action (https://cost-aerogels.eu) and the Department of Chemistry of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.

This conference aims at assembling and integrating the most recent scientific-technological knowledge in aerogels and other nanostructured materials on a wide range of fundamental topics in terms of novel designs, processes, modelling tools, characterization techniques and uses from academia, industry and regulatory experts, focusing on biomedical and environmental applications. It also aims at strengthening and creating new ties and collaborations in the aerogel community all over the world.

Networking among conference participants will be encouraged through specific Working Group meetings, coffee breaks, poster sessions, meals, sponsor booths and social events. Early-career investigators such as PhD students and young postdoctoral scientists will also have special sessions within the programme that will assure more visibility of their research.
