The 13^th edition of the Trends in Nanotechnology International Conference (TNT 2012) to be held from the 10^th until the 14^th of September 2012 will be sponsored by the European Physical Society (EPS).

This high-level scientific meeting aims to present a broad range of current research in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (N&N) as well as related policies or other kind of initiatives. Currently, 30 keynote speakers from all over the world, covering different fields of Nanotechnology, are confirmed.

Considering TNT 2012 is an EPS sponsored conference, their members qualify for a reduced fee at the event. The early bird fee is 400 € until the 20^th of June 2012 and after that date 485 €.
