2024 IIN Rosemary Schnell Symposium

You are cordially invited to participate in the 2024 Rosemary Schnell International Institute for Nanotechnology (IIN) Symposium.

This year, we return to the historic Orrington Hotel in Evanston with an expanded two-day event dedicated to advancing the field of nanoscience and technology. The symposium starts on October 9 and kicks off with a casual evening of food and networking.

On October 10, the symposium continues with a day filled with keynote presentations and an added panel discussion covering vital topics in medicine, materials science, and other areas related to nanoscience and technology.

In line with our mission to empower the visionaries of today and tomorrow by fostering meaningful exchange and collaboration at the forefront of nanoscience and technology, the 2024 symposium provides a platform for cutting-edge research, networking, and idea exchange among the brightest minds in academia and industry.
