Nanoscience Institute 4th workshop

“Reconnecting, inspiring interactions“

Cnr Nano Meeting: advancing frontiers in nanoscience and technology

We are excited to announce the 4th Workshop of the Nanoscience Institute, scheduled for June 5-6, 2025. This marks our fourth in-person gathering since the institute’s foundation in 2010 (previous editions: Matraia (LU), 2010; Modena, 2014; Pisa, 2018) and the first since the pandemic.

Guided by the tagline, “Reconnecting, inspiring interactions” the workshop is an opportunity to celebrate our shared identity and foster innovative partnerships that will drive future breakthroughs.

This event brings together our vibrant community of researchers, academics, collaborators, and staff to explore the latest advancements in nanoscience.

Over two days, we will delve into emerging topics, including quantum materials, advanced TEM microscopy, cutting-edge photonics, nanoscale biosensors, and high-performance computing for materials science. The workshop will also explore the transformative potential of nanotechnology in fields such as energy, healthcare, and sustainability. Participants will engage in stimulating discussions, share insights, and identify opportunities for collaboration to push new results in pure and applied nanosciences.

Dates: June 5th – 6th, 2024.

Venue: Cnr Nano S3 at Physics Building, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Via Giuseppe Campi, 213/a, 41125 Modena, Italy.
