Join our effort to provide $3,000 awards to six Ph.D. students who are taking inspiration from Biology to address urgent challenges in sustainability and human health. Every dollar you donate will go directly to support student awards.

The NanoBioNYC interdisciplinary Ph.D. traineeship program prepares students to become tomorrow’s leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs in a range of STEM careers.

On October 15th, the competition will be announced at the 2nd Annual NanoBioNYC Symposium at the Advanced Science Research Center at the Graduate Center, CUNY. And the categories are:

 Biomedical Materials and Nanomedicine

 Nanoscale Solutions for Sustainable Materials

 Green Energy Harvesting       

 Science Outreach

 Cross-Cutting Computational Research

 Entrepreneurial Breakthrough

The NanoBioNYC program prepares a student body that is as diverse as NYC, with many scholars being first-generation and underrepresented students. Learn more about the NanoBioNYC Program.

Last year’s awardees are making an impact! 

“The scientists, students, postdocs, faculty, and staff are truly passionate about the research that they’re doing and are so excited to share their knowledge and help one another. I think that love for science and love for collaboration really makes the ASRC feel welcoming. You can ask a lot of questions and learn about different topics within the different initiatives. That environment creates a really nice community of scientists who want to do their work.” - Jiye Son, STEM Entrepreneurship Coordinator, NanoBioNYC.
