Nanotechnology convergence For Sustainable Energy Environment and Health
ERI participated in the activities of the international conference US-North Africa Conference: Nanotechnology convergence For Sustainable Energy, Environment and Health, from April 4 to 8, via the Internet. Organized by the University of Texas El Paso, headed by Dr. Ahmed El Gendy, Assistant Professor at the University, and funded by the US National Science Foundation, under the auspices of the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology, which aims to increase the joint work space between researchers from the United States of America and researchers in North Africa. . The conference highlighted the latest global research and trends in the field of nanotechnology in the United States and North Africa in the fields of energy, environment and health. The conference sessions included important research topics such as quantum computing, energy harvesting, environmental applications, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The conference discussed the following topics:
- Synthesis of new functional nanomaterials for energy storage and conversion devices
- Quantum molecular nanomagnets for the new generation of quantum computing
-Environmental applications of nanomaterials, such as crop protection, climate change, and carbon emission reduction.
-Nanobiomaterials and their applications in pharmaceuticals, diagnosis and cancer treatment.
The Nanotechnology Applications Laboratory at the Electronics Research Institute participated in a presentation presenting the research trends of the laboratory and the technologies available in it, such as various energy storage systems such as capacitors, batteries, and hybrid batteries, and electronics printed with nanometric inks, such as sensors, printed antennas, and flexible circuits, through Professor Dr. Sherine Abdel Qader Muharram, current head of the Electronics Research Institute and supervisor of the laboratory. Previously, nanotechnology applications, Dr. Muhammad Al-Shami and physicist Abdul Hamid Muhammad.
