In 2017 we created a prestigious visiting professor program called the Kavli Chair. This Chair will be offered annually to a leading scientist in nanoscience with an outstanding international reputation at the highest level. He/she will be invited to come to the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft for a period of at least two and up to six months. Importantly, we aim at inviting scientists who will participate in active scientific interactions with the researchers at the institute. The Kavli Chair will also give specialized lectures and a Kavli Colloquium. 2019 Kavli Chair: Prof. Erwin Frey (LMU Munchen) 
2018 Kavli Chair: Prof. Hagan Bayley (University of Oxford) 
2017 Kavli Chair: Prof. Amir Yacoby (Harvard University)
