Scope

The Sixth International Summer School of the DFG-Center for Functional Nanostructures (CFN) will focus on nano-electronics and nano-biology, two main areas of research at the CFN.

In two independent, four-day sessions, invited experts from international and German research institutions together with lecturers from the CFN will give thorough and in-depth introductions into these specific fields as well as cover specialized research topics.

Although the CFN Summer School was originally established to address advanced graduate students and postdocs, senior scientists whishing to broaden their knowledge in the fields of nano-biology and nano-electronics are welcome to attend.

CFN Summer School on Nano-Electronics                               4.-7. September, 2009
	CFN Summer School on Nano-Biology     8.-11. September, 2009

Course language is English.

Classes will be held at the Evangelische Akademie in Bad Herrenalb, located just a few kilometers south of Karlsruhe in the Black Forest.

To further scientific exchange and discussion, each participant is expected to present a poster describing his/her scientific background, research interests or current research project.
