Dear BiC-FM 2020 participant,

We are pleased to welcome you to the First Bilateral Conference on Functional Materials organized between two neighboring countries with a long history of successful scientific collaboration: Finland and Russia!

The aim of this conference is to strengthen the existing mutual research and to establish new collaborations between scientific groups from Russia and Finland. We would like to motivate groups to share their recent advancements in both fundamental and applied science of functional materials. We wish that the Conference forms as a substantially important platform for students and young scientists to attend lectures and interact with the leading senior scientists at the forefront of their fields. Equally importantly, the Conference offers opportunities for the young scientist to introduce their state-of-the-art research work.

The BiC-FM 202 °Conference has attracted more than 130 participants registered not only from Finland and Russia, but also from various universities and institutions around the globe from such countries as India, Malaysia, Israel, Vietnam, USA, Great Britain and Brazil. Together we create new traditions, we support intensive idea exchange and virtual networking!

We thank our committed organizers, conscientious scientific committee and tireless administrative staff for their priceless help. We are grateful to the financial support by our generous sponsors and in particularly acknowledge Russian Science Foundation (Project identifier: 17-19-01787).

We wish that you will have enjoyable, enlightening and productive days during our Conference. We also look forward the pandemic situation in the World becoming better to organize face to face meetings in the forthcoming years!

Sincerely yours,

Conference chairs

Albert G. Nasibulin and Tanja Kallio
