Accelerating Innovation in Micro and Nanofabrication: Join the 24th EPFL MicroNanoFabrication Annual Review Meeting

On May 13, 2025, the SwissTech Convention Center in Lausanne becomes the focal point for the European micro- and nanofabrication community. Hosted by the Center of MicroNanoTechnology (CMi) at EPFL, the 24th Annual Review Meeting is an essential gathering for professionals working at the intersection of advanced materials, microsystems, and nano-enabled device engineering.

Suppose you're responsible for leading innovation in semiconductors, MEMS/NEMS, biophotonics, or lab-on-chip technologies. In that case, this event offers a front-row seat to the most advanced cleanroom-enabled research and its transition to functional prototypes and market-ready solutions.

What to Expect: Advanced Topics with Real-World Impact

This year’s program showcases transformative research and engineering advances, with over 200 posters and presentations from international experts. Topics include:

• Graphene-based plasmonic sensors for ultra-sensitive environmental and biomedical detection
• Flexible conductive device for next-generation wearables and smart implants
• Piezoelectric micro resonators tailored for high-frequency 5G and edge IoT devices
• Nanophotonic meta surfaces for high-resolution, label-free biosensing
• Autonomous micro robotic systems for minimally invasive procedures and extreme environments
• Low-loss integrated photonics powering scalable quantum and optical interconnect systems

These sessions are more than theoretical—they demonstrate how micro- and nanofabrication methods are enabling functional devices, supporting fast iteration cycles from concept to wafer-scale testing.

A Platform for Technical Dialogue and Collaboration

This is not just a scientific symposium—it’s a strategic meeting point for researchers, process engineers, system architects, and product developers. The Annual Review Meeting facilitates:

• Cross-disciplinary exchanges between academia and industry
• Access to pre-publication research and application-specific breakthroughs
• Focused networking to spark partnerships and R&D collaboration
