Prof. Duncan Haldane, 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics, will deliver a public lecture at the 20th PSHK conference!

The 20th PSHK Conference will be hosted by HKUST on June 16^th – 17^th, 2017 (Friday & Saturday).

The Gordon Research Conference on Plasmonically-Power Processes will come to Hong Kong on June 25-30, 2017 and provide opportunities for attendees to interact with internationally-renown experts in plasmonics at a weeklong event. Through generous support of the Croucher Foundation, there will be a limited number of scholarships awarded to Hong Kong participants (including students, post-docs, staff, professors). Those interested in attending should apply through the GRC website.  All attendees are required to register and to pay the full fee upfront ($885 for the conference, $1155 including full room and board).  Attendees are encouraged but not required to present a poster.  After the conference, when it is clear that the participant has been present, the scholarship of an amount of $400 will be reimbursed to the participant.
