Dear colleague,

We are pleased to announce that registration and abstract submission to the 17th Workshop on Dynamical Phenomena at Surfaces (WDPS-17) are now open from May 2nd to June 19th, 2016. In the same period, students and young researchers are encouraged to apply for support to participate.

The Workshop, to be held in Milan (Italy), September 19-21, 2016,  will be the 17th of a series started in 1983 (SURPHON workshops). Since then it became a regular meeting event for theoretical and experimental surface physicists and chemists along the years. The last two editions took place in Leiden (The Netherlands, 2012) and Madrid (Spain, 2014). The workshop complements traditional topics for the series (growth, vibrations, surface chemistry…) with timely subjects: this edition, emphasis will be on the properties of hybrid organic-inorganic interfaces.

Confirmed Invited Speakers:

Alessandro Coati, Synchrotron SOLEIL (FR)
George Malliaras ENS Mines de Saint Etienne, (FR)
Eva Rauls, Universität Paderborn (DE)
Stephan Rauschenbach, Max Planck Institute, Stuttgart (DE)
Alex Shluger, University College London (UK)
Ralf Tonner, Philipps-Universität Marburg (DE)
Latha Venkataraman, Columbia University NY (US)
Astrid de Wijn, University of Stockholm (SE)

In addition to the invited talks the program will include oral contributions as well as poster sessions. Further details and updates are available at the workshop website: http://wdps17.fisica.unimi.it/

We kindly ask you to advertise the workshop in your professional networks and to encourage your colleagues to participate in WDPS-17. The workshop flyer is available at: http://wdps17.fisica.unimi.it/files/WDPS17_flyer.pdf. We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this message.
