This event will be held on July 30–31 in Louisville, KY, and will bring together researchers and users in nanotechnology and additive manufacturing. The deadline to register is July 16. 

Researchers have created a metalens with a 10-centimeter diameter – big enough to have already captured images of the moon, the sun, and the April 2024 total solar eclipse.

Researchers have used solubility rather than entropy to overcome thermodynamic constraints and create high-entropy oxide nanocrystals at lower temperatures.

The researchers focused on designing a nanoparticle that could modify the cells that are responsible for fibrosis development and progression so they no longer produce excess collagen.

Scientists have created innovative soft robots equipped with electronic skins and artificial muscles. The electronic skins integrate various sensing materials – such as silver nanowires and conductive polymers – within a flexible base. 

The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office congratulates Robert S. Langer, Armand Paul Alivisatos, and Chad A. Mirkin for winning this year's Kavli Prize in Nanoscience "for pioneering work integrating synthetic nanoscale materials with biological function for biomedical applications."

On June 27, Nathan Drew (NIOSH) and Yueyang “Brian” Zhang (Vireo Advisors, LLC) will share their perspectives on the new tools, approaches, and models that are being developed to assess and manage potential risks from nanomaterials.
