The Department of Physics, Government College of Arts, Science and Commerce, Quepem-Goa is organising a 2-day national seminar on “Trends in the Techniques of Preparation and Characterization of Smart Material” at Ravindra Bhavan, Margao on March 3 and 4, 2023. The seminar is supported by the Directorate of Higher Education, Government of Goa.
Nanotechnology is based on smart materials and has been a subject of immense interest over the past few years. Today this enables us to see the bigger picture of nanoscience and technology.
Nanotechnology is on the way to becoming a trillion-dollar market; it influences almost every facet of everyday life. New properties enable us to introduce nanotechnology in new applications.
Some of the principal speakers are: Prof B N Thorat, Director of the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Matunga-Mumbai; Prof C D Lokhande, who has published over a thousand research papers from Shivaji University, Kolhapur; Prof Gaurav Lohar, Indian Science Congress Association Young Scientist Awardee, InSc, UGC Meritorious Fellow, and Early Career Research Award (DST-SERB, Government of India).
