Future students

WIN is spotlighting Dr. Yimin A. Wu’s seed‑funded research, which uses nanotechnology to break down and repurpose plastic waste, advancing Waterloo’s sustainability goals through the Global Futures Initiative.

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) and the Center for Nanointegration Duisberg-Essen (CENIDE) are pleased to present assistant professors, Teng Cui and Conrad Giresse Tetassi Feugmo for a joint 2D-MATURE seminar.

Building on the momentum of the NRC–Waterloo Quantum and Nanotechnologies Workshop, the NRC has opened a new call under its Quantum Internetworking (QUIN) Challenge Program. WIN researchers are invited to submit EOIs for collaborative projects focused on advancing networked quantum devices in Canada.

CENIDE & WIN Seminar Series on 2D-MATURE : Jani Kotakoski

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) and the Center for Nanointegration Duisberg-Essen (CENIDE) are pleased to present Jani Kotakoski for a joint 2D-MATURE seminar.

At Nano Tech 2026 in Tokyo, Tangho Green Canada, Yamagata University, and the University of Waterloo will present the first public demonstration of a dynamic printed force sensor on compostable NanoPaper. The interactive “electronic skin” demonstrates real-time touch sensing, marking the first commercial availability of Tangho NanoPaper as a sustainable substrate for printed electronics.

City University of Hong Kong and the University of Waterloo have launched a joint Seed Fund to support up to five collaborative projects in health and life science technologies. The program focuses on researcher and trainee mobility, pilot studies, and partnership building, with priority areas including drug discovery, diagnostics, therapeutics, aging technologies, and nanotechnology-enabled health research. Each project must include one PI from each institution and will receive up to HK$100,000 plus CAD$16,000–26,000. Proposals are due January 23, 2026, with projects running through March 31, 2027.
