 Outstanding Nanotechnology Manuscript Competition Winners |
In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the International Institute for Nanotechnology (IIN), an Outstanding Nanotechnology Manuscript Competition was held to recognize the five papers produced by IIN researchers over the past 10 years which represent the most important advances or achievements in nanotechnology.
Twenty-three papers were nominated and here are the results! Graduate student and posdoctoral associates who are co-authors on the winning papers will receive a cash prize.
Congratulations to all of the recognized manuscript authors and especially to our competition winners! |
