ANNUM (Asian Network for Natural and Unnatural Materials) is a unique conference series that was established to bring together researchers in the Asia– Pacific region to discuss emerging topics in the multidisciplinary areas of materials chemistry research. It will provide a platform for presentation of results and discussion and will attract young students towards scientific research. In addition, the speakers will highlight current trends in their own sub-discipline for motivating younger generation and offer practical solutions to various problems faced by the society, at large. In other words, this conference will also deal with translational areas of materials chemistry with potential applications.
