The Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft is an intellectually inspiring environment of world-leading scientists that perform pioneering research to understand the nanoworld from quantum physics to nanobiology. The focus is on developing novel concepts and achieving game-changing breakthroughs.

The Institute consists of two departments of the Faculty of Applied Sciences at Delft University of Technology: the Department of Quantum Nanoscience, and the Department of Bionanoscience. Both departments share the joint Kavli Nanolab facility. The Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft was founded in 2004, when it was selected and endowed by the Kavli Foundation. Delft is one of five Kavli Institutes of Nanoscience worldwide (Cornell, Harvard, Caltech, Berkeley and Delft), and the only one outside the United States (see www.kavlifoundation.org). Current director of the institute is Prof. Dr. Cees Dekker.
