2. Program • Topic 1 : Synthesis of nanostructured materials • Topic 2 : Processingand characterisation of materials nanostructuration • Topic 3 : Properties and modelling of organic-based nanostructured materials • Topic 4 : Biomass-based nanomaterials A poster session will be organized for graduate and undergraduate students. School topic The aim of ARCUS 2009 thematic school, organized by the Rhone-Alpes region, is to bring state of the art knowledge to students working in the field of polymeric-based nanomaterials. It is an interdisciplinary school that covers a number of topics from nanomaterials synthesis and processing to applications. Short courses will be given by lecturers selected among specialists in their field of expertise. Finally, the school will promote the establishment of collaborative research projects between the region Rhône-Alpes and Brazil.
