Welcome Message

We are pleased to announce "The 11th US-Japan Joint Seminar on Nanoscale Transport Phenomena" to be held in Tokyo, Japan, from June 24 to 27, 2026.

This seminar series, held triennially since 1993, gathers approximately 100 top and emerging researchers from the US and Japan to discuss the latest advancements in nanoscale transport phenomena. The forum covers a broad spectrum of transport phenomena—including heat, mass, light, electrons, and spin—ranging from fundamental theory and experimental characterization to numerical simulation and industrial applications.

We look forward to welcoming you to Tokyo for intensive discussions and networking.
