C'Nano GSO - The centre of competences in nanosciences in South-Western France. One of the 6 competence centres set up at the initiative of CNRS,CEA and MESR. 3rd European workshop on Self-organized Nanomagnets 2012, April, Guadarrama (Spain)
The Organizing Committee ChemOnTubes 2012, deadline for earlybird registration Dear Colleague, ChemOnTubes 2012 is February, 1, 2012. Graphene 2012, Brussels, 10-13 April Welcome to this 2nd edition of Graphene International Conference, in Brussels (Belgium), from the 10th to 13th of April 2012. The event will be held in a brand new meeting place, Brussels44Center, where technology and innovation work hand in hand in the generation of new business opportunities. Graphene2012 will be the largest event in the field taking place next year in Europe and is expected to gather 700 participants. The concept is simple: a plenary session, extensive thematic workshops in parallel, an important industrial exhibition carried out with the latest Graphene nanotrends for the future will be some of the features of this event. In addition, the consortium of the Graphene Flagship Pilot Action is working to establish the “Graphene Science and Technology Roadmap” which will be presented to the European Commission and Member States to demonstrate the need for securing long term funding, coordinated through a new Graphene Alliance. The Graphene Flagship Pilot Action will take advantage of the International conference Graphene 2012 in Brussels to co-organize a specific session in order to timely deliver to the European community the results of this Roadmap.

:::::GRAPHENE FLAGSHIP SESSION::::: The consortium of the Graphene Flagship is working to establish the “Graphene Science and Technology Roadmap” which will be presented to the European Commission and Member States to demonstrate the need for securing long term funding, coordinated through a new Graphene Alliance. The Graphene Flagship will take advantage of the International conference Graphene2012 in Brussels to co-organize a specific session in order to timely deliver to the European community the results of this Roadmap. Tentative program of this session:
:::::GRAPHENE CHEMISTRY & MATERIALS WORKSHOP::::: This workshop aims at validating the roadmap developed within the GRAPHENE FLAGSHIP Pilot initiative, in particular in the fields of graphene chemical functionalization for electronics and composites applications, by an open consultation with leading experts in the field. A main advantage of graphene technology is that, being based on carbon, it takes advantage of the huge power and versatility of carbon-based organic chemistry, which allows a fantastic diversification of properties and functionalities at the nanoscale. The one-day workshop will be included as a parallel session of the Graphene 2012 Conference. A series of targeted talks given by keynotes speakers will be followed by a roundtable with invited experts.

PhD and post-doctoral positions
Several PhD and post-doctoral positions are available in the Centre of Excellence for Computational Nanoscience (COMP) at Aalto University School of Science, Helsinki, Finland (www.aalto.fi). COMP was selected as an Academy of Finland Centre of Excellence originally from 2000 - 2005, and again from 2006 - 2011 and 2012 - 2017. This award emphasizes the scientific excellence of COMP and its global reputation for computational physics. The centre is led by Professor Risto Nieminen, and consists of over 80 researchers, forming eight focused research groups. Projects are available in all of COMP's subgroups, and candidates are encouraged to explore the online group descriptions (tfy.tkk.fi/comp/) or contact subgroup leaders directly for more specific information:
