The symposium will bring together scientists to discuss the theoretical developments that facilitate fundamental understanding of the science and technology of atomic clusters, nanostructures, cluster assemblies and biological systems and will highlight recent experimental observations that require theoretical attention. It will emphasize how finite size, low dimensionality, composition and special geometric arrangement can lead to novel behaviors in nanostructures that can be tuned by size, composition, and geometrical arrangements. The symposium will also promote an exchange between scientists studying inorganic nanostructures and those studying nanoscale biological systems such as proteins, cells, enzymes and DNA. This will enable cross fertilization of ideas and stress the interdisciplinary aspects of these emerging fields. The program includes several experimentalists to encourage synergy between theory and experiments. A large participation from graduate students will ensure nurturing the future leaders in these areas.

研讨会将汇集科学家讨论理论发展，促进对原子团簇，纳米结构，团簇组装和生物系统的科学和技术的基本理解，并将强调需要理论关注的最新实验观察。它将强调如何有限的大小，低维，组成和特殊的几何排列可以导致纳米结构，可以通过调整大小，组成和几何排列的新行为。研讨会还将促进研究无机纳米结构的科学家与研究蛋白质、细胞、酶和DNA等纳米生物系统的科学家之间的交流。这将促进思想的交流，并强调这些新兴领域的跨学科方面。该计划包括几个实验，以鼓励理论和实验之间的协同作用。研究生的大量参与将确保培养这些领域的未来领导者。
