The 38th Conference on the Physics and Chemistry of Surfaces and Interfaces (PCSI-38) will be held at Bahia Resort Hotel in San Diego, California from Sunday afternoon, January 16, through Thursday noon, January 20.

The annual PCSI conference is devoted to achieve a fundamental understanding of the physical, chemical, biological, structural, optical, magnetic and electrical properties of surfaces and interfaces. These studies include novel growth processes and interfacial phenomena, new characterization tools, transport, and functionality of the structures for future devices.

Generous amounts of discussion time will be included in the program in order to emphasize the workshop character and to stimulate the exchange of new ideas.
