The California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) serves as a hub of multidisciplinary research in the center of the UCLA campus which brings together leading investigators to produce life-changing socioeconomic impacts. Our mission is to leverage public and private investment for nanoscience research at the interfaces between disciplines, to translate discoveries into knowledge-driven commercial enterprises, and to educate the next generation of scientists and engineers. The Institute’s 190,000 square foot building fosters interdisciplinary team science by leveraging leading-edge facilities and expert services. CNSI’s Core Technology Centers provide fully integrated R&D infrastructure and professional support in the areas of nanofabrication, nanocharacterization and high-throughput screening. CNSI supports entrepreneurship through its Incubator Program, an innovative resource committed to accelerating the transfer of new technologies from the laboratory to the clinical and commercial marketplace. The Incubator Program drives commercialization through a translational pipeline built on training, collaboration and research infrastructure.
