Around 100 participants took part in the lively East Asian Postgraduate Workshop on Nanoscience and Technology, organized by the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering and Department of Physics from June 15-17 at HKUST.

Arranged by and for postgraduates, the workshop's goal is to set up a unique platform for those involved in nanoscience and technology research in the East Asian region to share their most recent work and research experience. Just as importantly, it offers a great opportunity to initiate and establish international collaborations.

The gathering brought together postgraduates from Singapore, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia and Mainland China, with 41 oral presentations and 49 poster presentations given during the event. Five students were selected for Best Oral/Poster Presenter Awards.
