2018 – March 6th

Registration Form

The subject of our second OneChemistry workshop on March 6th–7th in 2018 is “Designing Environmentally Sustainable Nanomaterials.” This builds on the efforts at the Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology to span disciplines within and beyond chemistry. One goal would be the development of benchmarked design principles for constructing nanoparticles with sustainability as a design criterion.
