NANOvember 2025

Lectures: November 3, 10, 18 and 24

STEM and Nanotechnology Family Day: November 15

Celebrate NANOvember at the University at Albany

This November, we’re shining a spotlight on the power of nanotechnology—from semiconductors and CHIPs to smart materials—and its impact on our world. From groundbreaking research and industry partnerships to hands-on student experiences, NANOvember showcases how UAlbany and New York’s Capital Region are driving innovation at the smallest scale—with the biggest results.

Join us for events, stories and discoveries that highlight how nanoscience is shaping the future of health, energy, computing and beyond.

Be sure to explore our STEM and Nanotechnology Family Day—a fun, interactive way for families to dive into the wonders of nanoscale science together.
