The nano agenda

Here are the events where the citizen and the civil society can find information on nanos – with an associative, academic or industrial lighting according to the events.

Do not hesitate to report a nano event to us at redaction(at)veillenanos.fr.

Understanding Nanoscience (Paris Saclay University, Online)
On line
Training
  • MOOC from April 28 to June 22, 2025
  • Public who has carried out two or more years of scientific studies at university, as well as professionals or the self-educated who want to discover, learn more or acquire specific knowledge in some area of nanoscience.
  • Organizer: Paris Saclay University
  • Course paln:
    • Theme 1: Introduction to nanoscience and nanotechnology - Let's lay the foundations and discover the key concepts of this field.
    • Theme 2: How can you “see” and fabricate nano-objects? We will discover what tools are used to observe matter at these scales and what techniques the scientist can use to make objects that are only a few billionths of a meter in size.
    • Theme 3: Nanochemistry - From carbon to porous solids and nanoparticle synthesis; applications of the field.
    • Theme 4: Nanophysics - Quantum effects and nanoelectronic devices; optical nanostructures: the confinement of light and emission; nanosensors; applications of the field.
    • Theme 5: Nanobiology, Nanomedicine, Micro-nanofluidics - The study and manipulation of molecules; treating diseases with nanomedicine; the on-chip manipulation of liquids for medical diagnosis; applications of the field.
    • Theme 6: Nanoscience and Society: Are Nanotechnologies dangerous? Societal, health and environmental issues.
