 California NanoSystems InstituteThe California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) is an integrated research facility with a mission to encourage university collaboration with industry and to enable the rapid commercialization of discoveries in nanoscience and nanotechnology. As a California Institute for Science and Innovation (CISI), CNSI builds on a visionary investment in future education, research and technological resources given by the State of California. |  UCLA Art|Sci CenterThe UCLA Art|Sci Center is dedicated to pursuing and promoting the evolving “Third Culture” by facilitating the infinite potential of collaborations between the arts and sciences. The Art|Sci Center supports visiting scholars from around the world by presenting lectures, mixers, and symposia in order to inspire individuals to think about art and science as interrelated endeavors that are relevant to society. |  Nano & Pico Characterization LabThe NPC Core Laboratory at the CNSI - UCLA provides an unprecedented collection of nano-scale surface analysis instrumentation in a single, multi-user facility. Through Scanning Probe Microscope, this facility enables thorough investigation of the vast array of physical, chemical and electrical properties necessary for complete study of an experimental system and developing nanotechnologies. |
