The International Conference on Multifunctional, Hybrid and Nanomaterials is a large interdisciplinary conference which brings together, at a truly international level, people with shared interests in hybrid materials and regularly attracts in excess of 1000 delegates.

Each day starts with a plenary lecture followed by 5 parallel sessions focusing on the following topics: Biohybrids, biomaterials and biological materials; Functional hybrid nanomaterials, nanocomposites and their applications; Functional porous materials.

Plenary lectures will be given by Yury Gogotsi (Drexel University, USA); Lei Jiang (Beihang University, China); Ian Manners (University of Bristol, UK) and Mohammad K. Nazeeruddin (EPFL, Switzerland). Krzysztof Matyjaszewski (Carnegie Mellon University, USA) and Clément Sanchez, (Collège de France, France) will each give a keynote lecture.

Contributions are invited for the large poster session within each symposia to supplement the oral programme.
