NTU was created to be a center for conducting Nano science and technology studies.

The Centre's research is focused on innovative therapeutic solutions to current medical challenges and deals with various nanoscale applications and materials.

Their mission is to investigate the natural structure-property-function relationship of cells and molecules so as to further understand the physiological functions and establish possible connections to human diseases.

Dedicated to improving and inventing innovative processes based on electrospinning and exploring new applications for the electrospun nanofibers.

The initiative's approach to the development and promotion of nanotechnology research is to optimise resources in creating strategic high impact research while retaining diversity in research areas.

Located at North Dakota State University, Fargo, the NDSU Center for Nanoscale Science and Engineering provides research and development with world-class facilities, equipment and staff with broad-based expertise.

NJIT is renowned for expertise in architecture, applied mathematics, wireless communications and networking, solar physics, advanced engineered particulate materials, nanotechnology, neural engineering and e-learning.

NanoPhysics researchers of New Mexico State University study optical, thermal, conductive and photoelectric properties of Nano-materials for Nanotechnological applications in nano devices.

Nanoscience and materials at NYU includes fullerene derivatization studies, chiral sensors and triggered materials, peptide nanotechnology; peptide surface interactions, molecular imaging agents, and proteins containing unnatural amino acids.

INSAT runs projects under a matrix structure pulling on resources from within the university and external partners to combine expertise and skills in pursuing a specific set of goals and objectives. A culture of teamwork, knowledge sharing, and connectivity with users provides INSAT with its frontier research in nanotechnology development.

Research activities in the group encompass a wide range of themes at the cutting-edge of nanoscale science and nanotechnology - principal interests lie in the synthesis and characterisation of new nanomaterials, such as nanodiamonds, silicon nanocrystals, gold nitride (AuN) and photon reactions on ice.

The Center for Advanced Materials and Smart Structures seeks to create cross-disciplinary infrastructure that transcends departmental, institutional, industrial and governmental barriers and lends itself to the integration of research and education in the vital field of smart and advanced materials. Research includes nanophysics, nanochemistry, nanocomposites

The research activities in the center are directed towards understanding the fundamental science of nanoscale materials and utilizing their unique properties for commerical applications.

The CHN is a nanoscale science and engineering center at Northeastern in partnership with U. of Massachusetts Lowell and the U. of New Hampshire.

The center aims to perform studies on the border between two fast growing scientific areas, Biotechnology and Nanomedicine.

The George J. Kostas Nanoscale Technology and Manufacturing Research Center is the primary facility for micro and nanofabrication at Northeastern University. The Kostas facility also serves as the main facility for the new NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center for High-rate Nanomanufacturing (CHN) at Northeastern University, in partnership with the University of Massachusetts Lowell, and the University of New Hampshire.

Wide range of nanoscience research

The Bio-inspired Sensors and Optoelectronics Lab (BISOL) has a general goal of producing novel photonics and optoelectronic devices inspired by nature. Current research is focused on infrared detectors and vision systems, nano-scale lasers, visible to terahertz plasmonics, and novel nano-processing.

The Center for Nanofabrication and Molecular Self-Assembly (NAMSA), one of the first federally and privately funded nanotechnology facilities of its kind in the nation, is home to scientists and engineers dedicated to the pursuit of new technologies.

The center's mission is to pursue academic excellence and high-level research in compound semiconductor science and nanotechnology.

A great educational site that gives a non-technical definition of one of the most exciting and promising new arenas in technology.
