National Nanotechnology Day is an annual event featuring community-led events and activities on or around October 9 to help raise awareness of nanotechnology, its use in products that enrich our daily lives, and the challenges and opportunities for the future. This date, 10/9, pays homage to the nanometer scale, 10–9 meters.
In celebration of National Nanotechnology Day and National Chemistry Week (Oct. 20–26), participate in the NanoInFocus image contest! This contest invites U.S.-based students and researchers to submit images representing structures or materials at the nanoscale that they have created during their research activities. The top three winning images will receive prizes of up to $1,000. The deadline to submit images is Sept. 25, 2024. Public voting for the winning images begins on National Nanotechnology Day. Submit your image today!
