RIANA is a Horizon Europe funded research infrastructure project coordinated by DESY. It connects 7 European networks of top research facilities, including EUSMI, the European Soft Matter Infrastructure, to cover the most advanced techniques for nanofabrication, processing/synthesis, characterisation and analysis, and simulation capabilities. The customised and efficient access is complemented by scientific and innovative services from senior scientists, facility experts and highly qualified junior scientists.

RIANA is now accepting research proposals: academic researchers can apply for free access to at least 2 infrastructures from 69 leading nanoscience facilities across 22 European countries.

You may submit a pre-proposal with your research idea, and our scientific network will provide you personalized support, from proposal writing to data analysis, aimed at advancing both scientific research and industrial applications in nanoscience and nanotechnology.
