Nano Day is an annual LCN celebration on or around September 10 to raise awareness of nanoscience, how we use nanoscience in our everyday lives, and how nanoscience will transform our futures. This date (10/9) is a tribute to the nanometer scale (10^–9). The LCN celebrate the very, very small on September 10th in recognition of the nanometer (10^–9).
Nanoscience underpins the technologies of tomorrow. Researchers across the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) and Imperial College London use nanoscience to make breakthroughs for applications in medicine and healthcare, energy generation and storage, and for future transport and computing systems.
Join researchers to learn about:
Connecting Life and Technology: See how tiny tech is improving the way living things and man-made materials work together.
Quantum Technologies: Find out about the future of super powerful computers, ultra precise sensors and more secure ways to communicate.
Nano Energy & Sustainability: Learn about the new tech that is helping to generate and store clean energy.

Engaging Talks: Hear from researchers as they share stories from their lives and labs, showcasing the incredible potential of nano technologies.
Why should I attend?
Learn: Discover how nano science is improving all of our lives.
Engage: Interact with researchers and explore cutting-edge innovations.
Celebrate: Enjoy an evening of scientific wonder in a vibrant, communal atmosphere.
The London Centre for Nanotechnology is a UK-based multidisciplinary enterprise operating at the forefront of science and technology. Its purpose is to solve global problems in information processing, healthcare, energy and the environment through the application of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Founded in 2003, the LCN began as a joint venture between University College London and Imperial College London, based at the Bloomsbury and South Kensington sites; from 2018 King’s College London joined the collaboration.
The Centre has a unique operating model that accesses and focuses the combined skills of all three universities across several key departments; Chemistry, Physics, Materials, Medicine, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Biochemical and Biomedical Engineering and Earth Sciences.
