Supporting collaboration at the intersection of biology and nanoscience
Principles of biology define fundamental properties that can inspire synthetic technology development and nanoengineering. Similarly, interactions at the nano and quantum scale shape biological phenomena. The Kavli Foundation supports research at the intersection of biology and nanoscience, to enrich our mechanistic understanding of both fields.
