Northeastern to Host NANOscientific Symposium Americas 2026
Northeastern University will serve as the host site for the NANOscientific Symposium Americas (NSS Americas) 2026, a hybrid event bringing together researchers, instrumentation experts, and industry partners to explore the latest developments in nanoscale discovery. The symposium runs September 29 at EXP, Northeastern University in Boston, with hands-on tool training following on September 30 at Northeastern’s Innovation Campus in Burlington, MA.
Benyamin Davaji, of Northeastern University’s Autonomous Integrated Microsystems (AIMS) Laboratory, plays a leading role in the event — delivering the symposium’s welcome remarks and presenting a technical talk, “Measure, Learn, Predict, and Act: Metrology-Enabled Digital Twins for Autonomous Nanomanufacturing.”
Davaji joins a lineup of speakers from Stanford University, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, MIT, the University of Toronto, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, alongside Park Systems leadership. Topics span atomic force microscopy, 2D materials, semiconductor failure analysis, and advanced optical metrology. Day two offers live, hands-on training with Park Atomic Force Microscopes, the Accurion EP4 Imaging Spectroscopic Ellipsometer, and a Lyncée digital holographic microscope.
