Abstract

Published by United Scientific Group On March 04-06, 2019 the NanoWorld Journal (NWJ) hosted its fourth edition of NanoWorld Conference (NWC) in Paris, France around the theme “Useful Science and Technology for a Just World”. NWC Paris-2019 has witnessed an unprecedented gathering of technological experts and creative thought leaders from reputed universities, industries, government laboratories and agencies. Experts from around the world gathered to discuss and share the experience of their research outcomes in the field of Nanotechnology and Nanosciences to address problems arising for humanity from energy to environment and natural disasters, cancer to hardware and space which have been growing and frequently underestimated. NWJ under the joint sponsorship of USG-United Scientific Group, a non-profit organization based in USA and Fondazione EL.B.A. Nicolini, Italy hosted the Conference with keynote and featured speakers covering different fields of nanotechnology from reputed academic institutions and cutting edge nanotechnological companies to deliver the transition from laboratories to commercial applications for the benefit of Society. 46 Scientists from 18 countries attended the NWC Paris-2019. It constituted a platform for discussing the ways to advance in finding the solutions through nanotechnology and nanoscience for the problems the world is facing in the key sectors of energy, environment, space, hardware and cancer with the involvement of overall society. The Conference has seen the participation of the world’s leading innovators, experts, scholars from many technology, university and industry sectors, including USA, Europe, Russian Federation and Asia, to add new elements to the existing scientific and commercial developments. The first day of the conference commenced with a Memorial by Professor Nicolini to his dear friend Zhores Alferov, Nobel Physics Prize since 2000 for developments in semiconductor research that have been used in satellite communications and cellular telephones and a close associate since 2008 when becoming Foreign Member Russian Academy of Science, and later from 2014 when becoming Editorial Board member of this NanoWorld Journal after its creation in San Francisco. Alferov has died indeed in Saint Petersburg at the age of 88 years. Subsequently the introductory plenary keynote lecture was held by the same Academician and University Professor Claudio Nicolini permanent NanoWorld Conference Chairman and life NanoWorld Journal Editor-in-Chief, having as title:
