UF NanoDay 2025 will be celebrated at the Nanoscale Research Facility on Thursday, Oct 9th (10^-9)
As you may know, National Nanotechnology Day (NanoDay) is an annual event across the nation that
celebrates nanoscale science, engineering, and technology. The day-long event recognizes researchers advancing each of these fields, applauds innovators translating nanoscale research into valuable products/services, and increases awareness of the potential for nanoscale research to positively impact lives.
Each year, the UF Nanoscience Institute for Medical and Engineering Technology (NIMET) and
The Nanoscale Research Facility (NRF) organizes stimulating, educational, and networking events
that take place on or near NanoDay. Although all NanoDay events are open to everyone,
we specifically encourage all UF personnel involved in nanoscale research to come and share
their ideas, efforts, advances, and discoveries.
