Scientific publications and h index

(Comment:
Some of my oldest papers among which some of high citation number and published in journals like Zeitschrift fuer Physik are not found in any of the data basis that are considered by this system. I have added them by hand but they are not associated with a data basiss like ISI or other.
American journals seem to have entry in data basis for all years but not all european journals.)

Promotion of Interdisciplinarity

Co-initiator and co-chair of the conference series "International Conference on New Frontiers in Physics”, which started in 2012.

The aim of the conference is to bring together for the first time the worlds of particle physics and cosmology with the world of quantum optics, and reach out to many other scientific disciplines as well.

ICNFP is the first conference allowing a broad scientific program requiring at same time top level of expertise and citing edge knowledge to be disseminated like topical conferences do, and bringing together top scientists from different fields that normally never meet eachother in scientific events, thus truly promoting extraordinary interdisciplinary exchanges.

See links to the conference in the section about organization of conferences.
