DNA Nanotechnology 2022: “DNA hybrid structures”
After last year's event could only take place as an online event at short notice, we hope to be able to bring the DNA community together again on site in Jena in 2022.
Thematically, the focus will be on the field of DNA nanotechnology and more generally on molecular nanotechnology, in which molecular approaches – not only methods but also building blocks and materials – are used to realize nanoscale structures and functional materials.
In addition to high-profile presentations by pioneers in the field of nanotechnology, young scientists will also have the opportunity to present their research work in poster-pitch talks.
We hope to meet you at the conference at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology in Jena, Germany.

Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology
At the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, scientists use light to find solutions to questions and urgent problems in the fields of health, environment, medicine and safety. Under the motto “Photonics for Life”, they research light-based technologies that make our lives safer, healthier and cleaner. Especially in the field of optical health technologies, Leibniz IPHT, in cooperation with partners from research and industry, is specifically promoting translation: the transfer of research results into applicable solutions – from Ideas to Instruments. » IPHT Website
