Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite you to join us in the Eighth International Conference for Mesoscopic Methods in Engineering and Science (ICMMES-2011), July 4-8, 2011. This year, the ICMMES Conference will be held in the campus of National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA), Lyon, France -- the organizing institute of ICMMES-2011. The Local Organizing Committee will be led by Professor Frederic Kuznik of INSA.
As in previous years, short courses designed to help students and researchers new to the field will be offered in the first day of the Conference, Monday, July 4, 2011, followed by four days of technical presentations. More details can be found in "Program" on the ICMMES website.
For the convenience of the participants, we have installed the following functions on ICMMES website (http://www.icmmes.org):
- Conftool: a conference management software for registration and abstract submission. Conftool allows you to create your personal account for ICMMES-2011. The information of your account can be saved and edited later. Further info can be found on the following website: http://www.conftool.net/user_documentation.html

- For US participants, PayPal can be used to pay the registration fees online in US dollars. PayPal is integrated in Conftool. To avoid unnecessary transaction fees, we encourage US participants to send checks to Old Dominion University according to the Instructions provided on the ICMMES website.
Several important dates and deadlines:

- Abstract submission: by Monday, May 9th, 2011 to be fully considered for oral presentation.

As in the previous years, we are applying support from some US funding agencies to support US participation in ICMMES-2011. Should we obtain the funding, it will be dedicated to support students, post-doctoral researchers, and junior faculty in the US institutions to attend ICMMES-2011.
