Technical presentations sessions include:
The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) and the University of Waterloo Chemical Engineering department are pleased to present a Distinguished Lecture Series talk by Dr. Max Lu, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Surrey, Gildford, United Kingdom.
The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) is pleased to present a Distinguished Lecture Series talk by Dr. Arun Majumdar, Jay Precourt Professor of Stanford University, and former US Under-Secretary of Energy, as part of our WIN Research Day and Symposium for Next Generation Energy Systems Thematic Area.
This event will also feature research presentations from WIN members in this area, a panel discussion and a poster session. The event will conclude with a networking mixer to continue conversation.

Graphene materials completely dispersed in various polymer matrices represent the first commercially feasible use of graphene. The talk will focus on our current developments in high-performance graphene composites based on both thermoplastic and thermoset resins. Our first graphene-based products with resistivity as low as 0.6 Ω·cm are PLA-based conductive filaments for FDM printers and a line of graphene composites and masterbatches for extrusion or injection moulding applications.
Colloidal and bulk block polymer nanostructured materials fabricated via solvent- or polymerization-induced structural transitions have been used in a host of applications ranging from biomedical to energy technologies. In both methods, the resulting nanostructure forms due to a change in the initial environment by either changing the solvent quality or the compatibility between polymers during polymerization.
Abstract:
Please join the Centre for Bioengineering and Biotechnology (CBB) and the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) on Tuesday January 22, 2019 for a guest lecture by Dr.
This workshop covers the basics of Intellectual Property (IP) protection with a focus on patents. You’ll learn about the different types of IP protection available and some of the most common pitfalls to avoid. Learn about the resources available to you at the University of Waterloo, including the Waterloo Commercialization Office (WatCo). You will also hear how IP is used to commercialize a technology through licensing or start-up creation.
Included is a brief discussion on “Are You an Inventor?”, this highlights some key points for consideration
