Dear Colleagues,

      It is with great pleasure to announce the 2nd International Conference from Nanoparticles and Nanomaterials to Nanodevices and Nanosystems (IC4N). Following the resounding success of the 1st IC4N held in Halkidiki, Greece with the Plenary Lecture by Nobel Laureate Sir Harry Kroto, this year’s IC4N sails across the Aegean Sea to the Island of Rhodes (the island of knights), Greece.  Rhodes is the biggest island of the Dodecanese island group with magnificent scenery, beaches, and great history.  We are also pleased to announce the Aegean Nanotechnology Workshop with the objective to establish focused interaction teams to address specific nano themes. The overall conference goal is to provide a stimulating environment for interaction and foster collaboration among international participants to address global problems in energy, environment, and human health.
      We look forward to hosting you in Rhodes.

      On behalf of the Organizing Committee.
