Each year the Nanotechnology Summer School focuses on applications of nanotechnologies in a different field. Comprising presentations from leading researchers and practitioners from the University of Oxford and beyond, the Summer School is essential for anyone with an interest in these topics.

The theme of the fourth annual Nanotechnology Summer School in 2012 will be 'Introduction to Bionanotechnology'.

This five-day intensive course provides an introduction to the exciting and emerging field of bionanotechnology. Each of the five days of the Nanotechnology Summer School has a dedicated theme and delegates can enrol for one day, more than one day or for the whole week - discounts are offered for students and those enrolling for all five days.

The full Summer School programme is as follows:

• 2 July: Introduction to Cell Biology and Bionanotechnology
• 3 July: Introduction to Bioanalytical Techniques
• 4 July: Applied Genomics and Proteomics
• 5 July: Nanoparticles, Nanostructures and Biomimetics
• 6 July: Interaction of Nanoparticles with Biological Systems
