Just got a notice from Nanotech BC that there’s going to be a Canada-India Nanotechnology Bionanotechnology workshop Aug. 10-11, 2008 in Edmonton at the National Institute of Nanotechnology. 10 scientists from India will be there and Nanotech BC is leading a delegation from BC attendees. If you want to collaborate with scientists in India, you can join the BC delegation by contacting:

• Darren Frew, Executive Director, BC Nanotech Alliance at 604.602.5260 or darren.frew@nanotech.bc.ca

I can’t find this info. on the Nanotech BC website (which is here if you’re curious) or on the National Institute of Nanotechnoloy website here in their newsroom.

This comes in the wake of a new Canada-India Science and Technology agreement which launched 10 initiatives totalling $17M and was announced in June 2008.  Details here.
