What does it take to solve gigaton-scale challenges? Professor Vinayak Dravid (Prof. V.P. Dravid) explains how nanoscience + nature work together in the latest Nanoscape. Listen: iinano.org/podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. #Nanoscience #Sustainability

Researchers from Tempelaar Team and UW-Madison Chemistry found that a centrosymmetric #crystal—once thought incapable of #chirality—can act chiral. This unexpected behavior could lead to new light-controlling tech, from sensors to optical displays. news.northwestern.edu/stories/2025/0…

Cancer. Diagnostics. Programmable materials. One Northwestern breakthrough is shaping it all. #SNAs power cancer drugs and diagnostics at over half the world’s top hospitals—and launched structural #nanomedicine. 🧪💜 #NUChemImpact 🔗 bit.ly/Mirkin-Impact

Check out our latest article from Northwestern Chemistry and International Institute for Nanotechnology in The Journal of Physical Chemistry where we discuss how real time density functional tight-binding models can be used to study plasmonics from a more quantum perspective. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

What are MOFs? Why do they matter? Professor Omar Farha broke it down in one of our most popular Nanoscape episodes — and he’s back tomorrow with more! 🎧 Catch up now: bit.ly/44Tmbzq

“We just scratched the surface.” After a year as chair of Northwestern Chemistry, Omar Farha returns to Nanoscape to discuss MOFs, sustainability, and the future of nanotechnology. 🎧 New episode is LIVE. Listen at iinano.org/podcast or wherever you get your podcasts.

We are proud to celebrate IIN faculty member Mercouri Kanatzidis, who has been awarded the 2025 Albert Einstein World Award of Science by the World Cultural Council. A well-deserved recognition for a truly transformative researcher.

Chad Mirkin and team show how to build colloidal crystals with intentional defects and cavities using DNA-guided nanoparticle assembly. This strategy could enable new optical, sensing, and catalytic materials. Read it today in Advanced Materials: bit.ly/3Uo2auU
