June 17, 2025
Northwestern University’s International Institute for Nanotechnology (IIN) has announced the recipients of the 2025 international Kabiller awards. The biennial awards recognize three top scholars — one pioneer and two rising stars — at the cross-section of nanoscience, technology, biology and medicine.
Nicholas Peppas, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, will receive the $250,000 Kabiller Prize in Nanoscience and Nanomedicine, the world’s largest monetary award in the field.
Nathan Gianneschi, a professor at Northwestern, will receive the $10,000 Kabiller Young Investigator’s Award in Nanoscience and Nanomedicine for recent groundbreaking discoveries that have potential to make a lasting effect in nanoscience and nanomedicine.
