Purpose

International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation and Engineering (ISNSCE) is a scientific organization founded in 2004. Its purpose is to promote the study of the control of the arrangement of the atoms in matter, examine the principles that lead to such control, to develop tools and methods to increase such control, and to investigate the use of these principles for molecular computation, and for engineering on the finest possible scales.

ISNSCE Conferences

ISNSCE sponsors two annual conferences: Foundations of Nanoscience: Self-assembled Architectures and Devices (FNANO) and DNA Computing and Molecular Computation (DNA Computing)
