nanoGUNE, the Basque Nanoscience Cooperative Research Center
Our mission is to carry out world-class nanoscience research for the competitive growth of the Basque Country.
Nanoscience is science at a very small scale: the nanoscale, ranging from 0.1 to 100 nanometers. A nanometer is one-millionth of a millimeter. The behavior of matter at the nanoscale is very special and scientists from very diverse disciplines are nowadays studing all these phenomena.
Our research is mainly focused on Quantum Nanoscience, Nanomaterials and Nanomedicine.
