Ohio?s statewide conference on nanotechnology was held March 2 and 3, 2005, at the Hope Hotel & Conference Center in Dayton, Ohio. The Ohio Nanotechnology Summit offered a unique opportunity to get a first-hand perspective on the boundless potential that this exciting technical field holds for Ohio?s economy and its citizens.

Because of time limitations, the main form of presentations to the attendees were the Poster Sessions. Posters that have been submitted elecctronically to the organizers have been placed on the bottom of this website for public viewing.

The agenda from the Summit is below. Talks that are available from the speakers are listed next to their name in the agenda. Slides and images from the poster presentations can be found after the agenda. If you would like to submit your presentation or poster to the website, please contact OCTS.
