The series of International Conferences on Nuclear and Radiochemistry (NRC) aims to promote worldwide scientific exchange among scientists involved in various aspects of nuclear chemistry, radiochemistry and related disciplines and technologies.

The first conference in this series was held in Lindau, Germany (1984), and subsequently organized every 4 years in various parts of Europe, namely Brighton, U.K. (1988), Vienna, Austria (1992), St. Malo, France (1996), Pontresina, Switzerland (2000), Aachen, Germany (2004) and Budapest, Hungary (2008).
Now it is our pleasure to announce the Eighth International Conference on Nuclear and Radiochemistry (NRC-8) to be held in Como, Italy. This is the first NRC conference organized under the auspieces of EuCheMS as well as in Italy.

The aim of EuCheMS NRC-8 is to cover all aspects of nuclear science and technology with particular attention to Nuclear and Radiochemistry and related disciplines. The sessions will be devoted to various fields with a multidisciplinary approach for sustaining the interest of scientists and industrial communities.

The sessions will consist of Invited Lectures (20-30 min) and a number of selected Short Oral Communications (10-15 min). It will be possible for everyone to attend all sessions because no parallel sessions are arranged.

A separate room will be allotted for 2 Poster Sessions and Coffee Breaks.

The technical program will be designed to cover the following themes:

Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry (radiodiagnostics, radiotherapy, theragnostics)
Nuclear fuel cycles, present Gen III+ NPPs, Gen IV and Th based reactors
Chemistry of radioelements and Super Heavy Elements research
Nuclear Chemistry, Radionuclide Production, High-Power Targetry
Radioanalytical Chemistry and Nuclear Analytical Techniques
Applications of radioactive tracers and nanoparticles
Reaction mechanisms and nuclear recoils, nuclear based spectroscopies (MOSSPEC and PAS), radiation geochronology, isotope effect
Education in radiochemistry and dissemination of culture in nuclear and radiochemistry, "session organized by CINCH consortium"
Radioactive elements in the environment, radiation archeometry and Health Physics

************************************************

The conference will be held at the Grand Hotel di Como, Como, via per Cernobbio, Italy, between 2012 Sep 16-21 (Sunday to Friday). This beautiful lake area of Northern Italy is especially suitable for an enjoyable atmosphere may that be for scientific exchnage or relaxation.

The conference site is well served by highways, trains (less than one hour from either Milano railway stations or Swiss border). Local boats are rather cheap and available for moving between the small towns on the lakes.

The main international airports of Milano (Malpensa International, Linate, Orio al Serio-Bergamo) are nearby. Moreover, other international airports are located in Torino, Brescia, Verona and Venezia, but are not served every day.
