8th Japan-Australia Colloid Science
Gakkai
Sunday 27th-Wednesday 30th of November 2005
Crowne Plaza
Hotel, Terrigal, NSW, Australia
Meeting Description
This Gakkai (conference meeting in Japanese) aims to promote
collaboration between scientists from Japan, Australia and
other countries in the region, working in the field of Colloid
and Interface Science. It is the 8th meeting in a series that
was initiated by Professors Toyoki Kunitake (Kyushu University,
Japan), Tom Healy (University of Melbourne, Australia) and
Neil Furlong (RMIT University, Australia), in 1992. These
meetings are a showcase of Colloid Science in the two countries
and have been successful in bringing together the diverse
interests of the two communities, that is the Japanese strength
in areas such as new surfactants, self-assembly and materials
technology with the Australian strengths in fundamental measurement
techniques and theory, and applied colloid science. The Gakkai
will provide an international forum for detailed discussion
and presentation of recent developments in the field of Colloid
and Interface Science.
