I liked ICONAN 2017 very much, I met interesting people in my area of interest and I found a lot of new protocols that I can use in my lab.
Ms. Geanina VoicuWas great to see so many disciplines coming together at #ICONAN17 #Barcelona to share #biomedical #nanotechnology research. Learned a lot! https://t.co/LebBuGDzEE

FULL PAPERS PUBLICATION
Once your abstract has been accepted by the Scientific Committee you can choose whether to submit your full paper for publication or not.
The conference proceedings will be published in the International Journal of Nano and Biomaterials. The ICONAN 2017 Organizing Committee is pleased to announce that the International Journal of Nano and Biomaterials (Scopus indexed) has been chosen to publish the Conference Proceedings through a special issue. Only authors whose abstracts have been accepted by the Scientific Committee can submit the corresponding full paper to be considered for the Conference Proceedings. Authors must comply with the following rules when submitting their full paper: For each submitted paper, the referees will be appointed by the Conference Guest Editor. Once the reviewing process is completed, the result will be notified to the author. The authors are required to follow the referees’ recommendations in order to improve their paper before the final submission. More information will be available soon about the important dates and the guest editors. The full papers must be submitted and reviewed via the Inderscience online system: first, you need to register here: http://www.inderscience.com/ospeers/authorregister.php. Once registered you will be able to start the submission process, please choose the “International Journal of Nano and Biomaterials” as Journal and “ICONAN 2017: Special Issue on Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology” option as Special Issue on the pulldown menus.
