What are YOU doing for National Nanotechnology Day?

National Nanotechnology Day is an annual event featuring a series of community-led events and activities on or around October 9th to help raise awareness of nanotechnology, how it is currently used in products that enrich our daily lives, and the challenges and opportunities it holds for the future. This date, 10/9, pays homage to the nanometer scale, 10-9 meters.

Now in its second year, planning for various events and activities is underway at schools, labs, and organizations around the country! In addition, the National Nanotechnology Coordination Office is promoting the following activities:

 

  • 100 Billion Nanometer Dash: a challenge to run #100BillionNanometers  (equal to 100 meters), share your pictures and videos, and get added to our online map! Print a Certificate of Achievement and a gold medal for your runners.   
  • EnvisioNano: the next winner of the NNI’s nanotechnology image contest will be announced on National Nano Day. Now accepting submissions!
  • Nano Filmthe next winner of the NNI’s nanotechnology video contest will be announced on National Nano Day. Now accepting submissions!
