The major objectives of this one-day conference were to
showcase current ISN collaborations with Army and industry
colleagues, and to use this forum to nurture and initiate
new collaborative efforts. Podium presentations and poster
sessions by ISN, Army and industry personnel highlighted
the latest accomplishments in basic and applied research
and in technology transitioning by ISN, Army and industry
partners. The ISN-AICC was be held on May 28, 2008. The
next ISN-AICC will be held in 2010.
Seminars
The ISN sponsors the Army Nanotechnology Seminar series (ANTS),
a monthly seminar series during the academic year featuring
scientists from the U.S.
Army, industry, and academia discussing current research
in
support of the American Soldier.
