Nanotechnology "Nano", a prefix meaning one billionth, lends its name to the super-small scale devices and scientific methods used to create the 21st century’s most advanced technology that promises to revolutionize everything from communications to health care. Utah is committed to bringing together university and state "nano" experts. We have been instrumental in the creation and ongoing support of the Nano Institute of Utah. The Nano Institute of Utah provides an organization wherein scientists, engineers and clinicians from across the University of Utah, the state and elsewhere work together to attain global recognition by conquering interdisciplinary challenges in nanoscience and nanotechnology. The Institute enables Utah researchers from disciplines such as chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, medicine, and pharmacy to create synergistic alliances to drive higher levels of collaborative research, education and commercialization. USTAR in collaboration with the University of Utah has recruited top researchers to work in the nanotechnology field in the following categories:
