What is Integrated Nanostructured Systems (INS)?
The development of more miniaturized equipment and storage devices has resulted in the recognition that new technologies are required for the design, synthesis, and fabrication of miniaturized systems. Consequently, the field of Integrated Nanostructured Systems is having a tremendous impact on the new technological breakthroughs in material science, electronics and photonics, and their application to biological research, diagnostics, and medical devices. UB has major strengths in nanomaterials research groups and is well placed to be a major contributor to this field.
As an umbrella group, Integrated Nanostructured Systems research involves many decanal units of the university. Faculty from the College of Arts and Sciences and the schools of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Engineering and Applied Sciences, Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Dental Medicine contribute to these collaborative and interdisciplinary research efforts.
