Editorial --------------------------
(1) Deadlines- without them, little would
get done. So, be aware that the
deadline for abstracts for the 2005 Silicon Nanoelectronics Workshop, this
year in Kyoto, is coming up shortly - February 15th! (http://smdlbest.snu.ac.kr/snw/main.html) Not too soon after
(http://www.mein.nagoya-u.ac.jp/IEEE-NANO/IEEE-NANO-2005/) These conferences have been enormously
successful in the past, and this year promises to be no different.
Also, I want to
thank those who have contributed news to this edition of the NTC Newsletter.
Your submissions are not just welcome, but are central to the goals of keeping
our community informed. Please
send your job openings, conference announcements, equipment wanted or for sale,
news of your graduate students, or anything else that you can think of. If you have any questions, feel free to
contact me personally.
Regards,
Gary H.
Bernstein
