The 9th International conference 3M-NANO 2019 is the annual International Conference on manipulation, manufacturing and measurement on the nanoscale was held in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu province on August 4-8, 2019. The ultimate ambition of this conference series was to bridge the gap between nanosciences and engineering sciences, aiming at technology opportunities and new markets, increase international collaborations and cooperation. The advanced technologies for manipulation, manufacturing and measurement at nano scales promise novel revolutionary products and methods in numerous areas of application. The 3M-NANO 2019 was sponsored by IEEE nanotechnology society and organized by School of Materials Science and Engineering, and Institute of new materials of Jiangsu University and Changchun University of Science and Technology. The delegates, experts and scholars from all over the world were warmly welcome in the open speech given by the President of Jiangsu University, Yan Xiaohong followed by Vice President of Changchun University of Science and Technology

J of Optomechatronics, J of Micro-Bio Robotics, Journal of Bionic Engineering, Light (Science & Applications), Optics and Precision Engineering, Micromachines, Nanomaterials.
The IEEE 3M-NANO 2019 International Conference received strong support from the IEEE Nanotechnology Council, the National Natural Science Foundation, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Education, and the SCO University. This session showcased the world's top scientific research in nanomaterials manipulation, production and technology, including classic theories, ingenious material design, major scientific issues addressed in applications, and practical applications. The convening of this conference promoted the exchange of scientists and researchers in nanotechnology and related fields, and strengthened cooperation among countries in the field of nanomaterials manipulation, manufacturing and measurement.
The relevant person host of Jiangsu University stated that “the world’s leading scholars from Denmark and the United States have also conducted research on burning academic issues, educational characteristics, academic systems, personnel training, exchanges and cooperation & collaborations, both at local and international levels. It demonstrates the characteristics and advantages of the disciplines of materials science and engineering in nanometer manipulation, manufacturing and measurement. This international conference expanded the international academic influence of our disciplines and the school, and is one of the academic exchanges of our School of Materials Science and Engineering. The key window is also an important carrier for promoting the implementation of the internationalization strategy. We can promote multi-party academic cooperation and build a good communication platform and Communication Bridge for domestic and foreign scholars.
