Innovation knows no boundaries. The Kabiller Awards recognize scientists from institutions worldwide whose research is shaping nanoscience and medicine. 🏆 $250K Kabiller Prize 🏅 $10K Young Investigator Award 🌟 $3K Rising Star Award 🔗 Nominate today: iinano.org/education/kabi…
Happy to have celebrated @CHADNANO’s reception of the Gibbs Medal from the Chicago Local Section today…
Structure is the secret. In today’s ACS Nano perspective, Chad Mirkin and a team of scientific leaders explain how carefully engineered nanomedicines could make treatments safer, smarter, and more effective. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
A new perspective from Chad Mirkin (@CHADNANO), Milan Mrksich, and Natalie Artzi (@NatalieArtzi) charts a bold future for precision nanomedicine. Out now in Nature Reviews Bioengineering: nature.com/articles/s4422…
We’re diving into another exciting day of #NUChemistry research, discussions, and networking! Here’s what’s on the agenda for Wednesday at #ACSSpring2025: @CHADNANO talks tesselated #particle assembly (@IINanoNU)
Tuesday at #ACSSpring2025: #Nanomaterial megalibraries with @CHADNANO (@MirkinGroupNU).
Breakthrough alert! Published today in Advanced Materials, IIN researchers led by Chad Mirkin & Vinayak Dravid introduce innovative "phase-separating" nanoreactors, unlocking nanoparticle megalibraries across almost the entire periodic table. 🔗bit.ly/4it47jQ
Fantastic job by Carolin-- Tour de force, multiple and complementary ideas converging here!!
Excited to share our first paper in @acsnano! By tuning nanoparticle surface ligands, we control their interactions with enzymes and boost enzyme activity over 10-fold! A step toward programmable biocatalysis! Here's a thread on the key points... pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
Congratulations to Wenjie Zhou, @MirkinGroupNU alumnus, on receiving the 2022 Excellence in Graduate Research Award! Your presentation, "Understanding Complex Soft Matter through Geometry-Inspired Chemical Principles," was greatly appreciated.👏 #AlumniExcellence #NUChem
Chad Mirkin's (@CHADNANO) latest paper in Science Advances tackles global energy challenges posed by traditional lighting. Discover how his team’s WLEDs and chromaticity palettes aim to reduce the 15-20% of electricity used worldwide: iinano.org/white-light-em…
Check out this new article from Chad Mirkin and colleagues: 'Manipulating metal–ligand binding in allosteric coordination complexes through ring strain' @ChadNano, @MirkinGroupNU buff.ly/4hdemYY
At a @chicagobulls game tonight with @CHADNANO !
Celebrating with Ted Sargent and his former students at Boston MRS. One of the best hires NU ever made! @NUChemistry @tedsargentNU_TO

Congratulations Chad Mirkin @CHADNANO for receiving the @KavliPrize from the King Of Norway in #NanoScience with Robert Langer and Paul Alivisatos.
Congratulations to the Azul team! Amazing progress this year! @azul3d
Thanks to @ChicagoInno for a great event last night at the 2024 Fire Awards! We were proud to win top startup in the “Ember” category for early-stage startups. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners!
Beautiful and important work. Congratulations!
To achieve this we generated magnetically-activated spherical nucleic acids, based on the pioneering work from @CHADNANO and others 💪🟢🧬 For the amazing ‘off’ state we achieved, Ellen developed a whole new SNA purification method!
Julie is a star - worth listening to! @IINanoNU
Julie Bourgeois, PhD candidate from the @MirkinGroupNU, returns to discuss how DNA and the unique architecture of the SNA can be utilized to interact directly with living systems for the diagnosis or treatment of disease. youtu.be/hu5Uutum1Wo
Very exciting development involving High Area Rapid Printing (HARP). Congratulations to James Hedrick and the Azul team! @azul3dprinting @jimihedrick
Azul3D launches OCEAN 3D printer in collaboration with 'industry partner'. “The OCEAN platform is a new-to-industry capability, with the opportunity to enable new high-volume products and supply chains.” Read more >> tinyurl.com/mrxhwh8d #3DPrinting #AdditiveMfg
Scientists on Friday, Engineers today! 11 new Ph.D.s in total. Congratulations Namrata, Yuanwei, Caroline, Wenjie, Donghoon, Jasper, and Michael! @IINanoNU @m_evangelo
