[1/25] 3rd International Mini-Symposium on Surface Forces on January 25
2015.01.15

Date ：2016/1/25　10:00-17:30
Place：AIMR main building (2nd floor meeting room)

We would like to announce that 3rd International Mini-Symposium on Surface Forces will be held on Jan. 25th, at AIMR main building (2nd floor meeting room). The purpose of this symposium is to discuss recent progress and future prospects of surface forces measurement and related subjects such as soft matter physics and nano material science.
You are welcome to join us. Thank you.
