NUANCE: Nanoscale Characterization Experimental Center

NUANCE Fest 2024!

This year’s celebration of NUANCE and National Nano Day was one of our largest with over 200 attendees! NUANCE Fest took place on Wednesday, October 9th (10 -9 ) in the Willens Wing Atrium, a new location from the last 5 years. This year folks had the option to participate in guided tours of our facilities or take a self-guided tour, where they collected stamps and entered to win raffle prizes, played games, and ate yummy food!

Professor Dravid announced the winners of the 'Art of Science' Image Contest, highlighting that the 2024 contest saw submissions from the largest number of research groups in the contest’s history. If you’d like to see all of our winners, check them out on our NUANCE Fest Website! 

Thank you to everyone who came to NUANCE Fest to celebrate National Nano Day with us! And to the incredible staff and Dravid Group student volunteers who made it all go so smoothly!
