The NW-2 presentations in the workshop were mostly based on the published articles in the EAJSE journal. This journal published a special issue on nanotechnology and will be available online after Jan 2, 2019.

During the 2nd Nanotechnology Workshop, the following activities also presented which was highly accepted by the participants and the speakers:

* Invited speaker’s talk: Prof. Dr. Muhammed-Ali Al-Omari – Biophysics

*  Academic oral presentations: Novel studies on Nanotechnology- Published Researches on Special Issue on Nanotechnology- EAJSE journal

*  Poster presentations

*  Academic debates on water purification using Nanoparticles and Nanofibers.

*  Open discussion: “The Present and Future of Nanotechnology: Our Perspectives”

Finally, the events ended with certificates awarding and with group photos for the participants. Participants gave a special thanks to the organizers and Tishk International University’s endless support and they hoped to see the 3rd Nanotechnology workshop in 2019 with more activities and support to the Nanoscience researchers.

The Physics Education department would like to acknowledge the support from the Tishk International University and would also like to thank and appreciate to researchers who had presentations, to all staff, students and the participants.
