"My goal in establishing these institutes is to support research at the frontiers of science. I feel that it is especially important to pursue the most far-reaching opportunities and challenges and to seek answers to the most fundamental questions." - Fred Kavli, Founder, The Kavli Foundation
Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science serves as a catalyst for thought and imagination – not by funding specific research or experiments, but by bringing together a diverse range of scientists to share their ideas and visions for nanoscale science and technology. Robert C. Richardson is director. Read More
Kavli Nanoscience Institute at the California Institute of Technology studies the potential application of nanoscience to fields such as biotechnology and photonics. In all its areas of focus, it looks beyond individual nanoscale structures and devices toward the goal of integrating them into nanosystems. Michael Roukes and Axel Scherer are directors. Read More
Kavli Institute of Nanoscience at Delft University of Technology explores the theoretical and practical frontiers of nanoscience, studying new physics and exploiting novel principles to develop new devices, materials and methods of fabrication. Hans Mooij is director.
