Event description

Join us in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada from Sunday, October 7 to Wednesday, October 10, 2007 for the International Symposium On Photochromism. This three-day event will highlight recent advances in the design, synthesis and performance of photoresponsive molecules, materials and devices. Through the combination of oral and poster presentations, participants will get a fresh look at photochromic organic and inorganic systems, and their applications from an international group of leading researchers.

Thematic sessions will include:
- the development of novel photochromic platforms and new synthetic methods
- fundamental photochemistry of photochromic systems
- the integration of photochromic systems with solid-state platforms
- optical information storage and processing systems
- inorganic and hybrid photochromic systems
- photochromic systems for use in biological and medical applications.
