Abstract: The International Carbon Conference, Carbon 2007, was held in Seattle, USA, hosted by the American Carbon Society and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, during July 15-20, 2007. About 430 attendees participated in the conference, and 433 papers were accepted for discussion, including 4 plenary lectures, 16 keynote talks, 238 oral presentations, and 175 posters. The papers were mainly contributed by researchers from the USA, Japan, UK, China, France, Korea, Germany, and Spain, and were classified into the flowing topics: novel structures and forms of carbon materials, characterization of carbon materials properties, electrochemical applications of carbon materials, carbons for composite materials, active carbons etc. Studies on nanostructured carbons are quite active, and notable progress has been achieved on the electrochemical properties and biomaterials and medical applications of carbon materials.
