The XXV International Conference on Organometallic Chemistry will be held in Lisbon, from 2nd to 7th September. The registration period for early registrations is open until 30th April 2012.
The scientific level of the conference will be provided by its attendants and thus you are cordially invited to join and present your best and recent scientific work orally, by poster or by poster with a flash oral presentation. Not only the senior researchers are welcome, but also the younger ones which are encouraged to present their work namely via flash presentation of selected posters. The exchange of ideas and discussions among the different generations will be promoted.
All fields of Organometallic Chemistry will be considered, from fundamental to applied ones, including multidisciplinary approaches and related areas of other sciences (thus avoiding artificial boundaries).

Nanotechnology is being applied to cancer in two broad areas: the development of nanovectors, such as nanoparticles, which can be loaded with drugs or imaging agents and then targeted to tumours, and high-throughput nanosensor devices for detecting the biological signatures of cancer. Combined, such technologies could lead to earlier diagnosis and better treatment for patients with cancer.
