You are cordially invited to participate to the 6th TUNISIAN CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC MEETING (TCM6) by submitting a paper and actively assisting in its work.

TCM6 is intended to provide an excellent opportunity for National, Maghreb and International researchers to make their own work known to a wider audience and to have discussions with other participants. This conference will also be an opportunity to exchange experiences, create and consolidate cooperation between different research structures.

This outstanding conference, organized by the “Tunisian Crystallographic Association”, will take place from 1â€"5 November 2017 in a beautiful and exotic Hotel: El Mouradi Djerba Menzel 4* on Djerba Island, an ecological place, very popular by its palm groves, its beaches and its wetlands populated by various species of migratory birds.

The conference will expand to cover a broad set of research topics about:

• Crystal Structure of Materials, Nanoparticles and Minerals
• Chemical Crystallography
• Cements
• Thin films
• Magnetic order and its consequences
• Dielectrics and multiferroics

We are happy to announce VI-th National Crystallographic Symposium (NCS2016) that will be held on October 05-07, 2016, Sofia, Bulgaria.

As you may have already recognized this is will be the sixth "NCS" of the series started in 2009.

We have already started the preparation of the next issue of the conference (submitted manuscripts will be published in the journal “Bulgarian Chemical Communications”, a special issues due April 2017).NCS16 papers will also be online available in full text via the present platform.  You are warmly invited to come and join us!

NCS2016 is held under the auspices of BCS and is the major event on Crystallography, crystal growth, structure analyses and related techniques in Bulgaria. The Symposium aims at the applications of different crystallographic techniques in combination with other methods in the fields of materials sciences, mineralogy, biology, environmental engineering, computational methods etc. Bringing together researchers from different areas NCS16 will provide them with a high-qualified platform for them to share their latest studies and to assist further findings and collaboration.

With passionate participants from the world, NCS2016 Â would be perfect for you to present your research and find collaboration for your future work.

The Conference will provide a platform for crystallographers, material scientists and solid state physicists to discuss methods and techniques used in crystallography studies, to present their recent achievements in solving different material problems, to promote new ideas in the field of material science. The conference programme will include oral and poster presentations covering both the fundamental and applied research.

Registration is now open for the BCA Industrial Group Autumn Meeting which will be held at the Royal Institution in London on Wednesday 12th November. The meeting will be celebrating industrial science during this International Year of Crystallography with talks covering a wide range of crystallographic topics. We will also be treated to a lecture from one of the RI’s historians on the history of the RI and the Bragg’s work.

The International Conference on Diamond and Carbon Materials is a premier forum to showcase the latest results in the science and technology of carbon materials, with an emphasis on diamond. This will be the 25th event of the series, a longevity sign of the constantly renewed interest and consistent progress made in the science and technology of carbon-based materials.

We are pleased to announce that Professor Sumio Iijima (Meijo University, Nagoya University, NEC and AIST, Japan) has won the 2014 Diamond and Carbon Materials Award for his exceptional achievements in carbon nanoscience, in particular for his seminal work on carbon nanotubes.

Topics:

This conference will present the latest research on the growth, fundamental aspects of the properties and structure of carbon- and diamond-based materials as well as their application spanning nanoelectronics, quantum computing, electrochemistry and biotechnology. Topics will include:

• CVD growth of diamond and production and properties of nano-crystalline of diamond
• Utilization of quantum effects for quantum computing, magnetometry and cryptography based on single defects
• New developments and applications of carbon allotropes for bio- and environmental sensing
• Manufacturing of pn and pin-junctions for deep UV-LEDs and power devices by way of progress in growth and doping of diamond
• Growth of graphene and CVD of carbon nanotubes
• Use of carbon nanotubes in electronics, supercapacitors and batteries
• Applications of nano-diamond in drug delivery
• Use of graphene in displays, RF electronics, supercapacitors, batteries, electrochemical and biochemical sensing as well as metal- replacement in power devices

Â

The meeting will cover diverse aspects of crystallographic research ranging from life sciences, drug development, crystal engineering to theory, instrumentation, synchrotron and neutron studies.

The International Program Committee is working very hard to bring together a stimulating program that covers all aspects of crystallography with research talks on progress at the forefront of our subject. 2015 marks a very special anniversary in our discipline marking 100 years since the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Sir William Henry Bragg and his son William Lawrence Bragg.

“Condensed Matter in Paris” is an international conference covering all aspects of condensed matter physics, including soft condensed matter, liquid physics, biophysics, materials science, quantum physics and quantum simulators, low temperature physics, quantum fluids, strongly correlated materials, semiconductor physics, magnetism, surface and interface physics, electronic, optical, structural, and mechanical properties of materials, acoustics, and disordered media. An important place will be granted to interdisciplinary topics as well as to the development of research infrastructure in Europe.

“Condensed Matter in Paris” is jointly organised by the Condensed Matter Divisions of the French Physical Society SFP and of the European Physical Society EPS, and will unite the 14^th Journées de la Matière Condensée (JMC14) and the 25^th Conference of the Condensed Matter Division of the EPS (CMD25) in a single event.

 “Condensed Matter in Paris” is the next in the series of biyearly JMC and CMD conferences, the last of which were held in Montpellier and Edinburgh, respectively. It will also host the biyearly French-Singaporean workshop on physics, which, this year, will have “Graphene” as its main theme.
