BySPM
 10th International Conference
METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS
OF SCANNING PROBE MICROSCOPY – 2012
Minsk • Belarus November 13–16, 2012
INVITATION
The organizers cordially invite you to participate in 10th International Conference “Methodological Aspects of Scanning Probe Microscopy – 2012”, which will be held in Minsk, November 13–16, 2012. The conference venue is A.V.Luikov Heat and Mass Transfer Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus.
Since 1996, the conference had the title “Byelorussian Seminar on Scanning Probe Microscopy” (BySPM). From 2006, it was renamed to “Methodological Aspects of Scanning Probe Microscopy.” In 2010, it was decided to elevate the meeting status to ‘conference’.
The aim of the 10th conference BySPM is to provide place for discussion of recent achievements in SPM methods, and their use for scientific and applied tasks. The official languages of the conference are Russian and English (no translation service will be provided).
