The three days conference NCMAT-12 is aimed at bringing together the scientific and technical community, to share their knowledge in the recent trends on the advanced materials, its applications and various computational techniques for predicting their various properties at bulk as well as nano scale. Eminent scientists in the respective fields will share their experience and knowledge with the young participants, which in turn are expected to promote research activities on the advanced materials. This conference is second in series; the first was organized as MAT-10 on 28th June, 2010 as one day conference and looking to the overwhelming response of the participants, we have planned this time for three days and also widened the range of topics. The conference will be of great importance in the sense that it will be attended by chemists, physicists, biologists and engineers making it truly interdisciplinary in nature so as to share research findings on preparation, analysis of structure and other properties in the macro to nano scale and their possible application in the medicine, automotive, chemical, electronics and electrical engineering. It is aimed to sensitize the young participants in the theme areas of the conference so as to make them instrumental in pursuing quality research.
