• Quantum materials
• 2D materials
• Layered materials
• Layered quantum materials
• Characterisation of functional nanoscale materials and bio-assemblies
• Properties of nanoscale materials
• Self-assembly and molecular organisation
• Complex hybrid nanostructures
• Nanocomposites, nanoparticles, nanocrystalline materials, and nanoclusters
• Nanotubes, molecular nanowires and nanocrystals
• Molecular nanoscience
• Nanocatalysis
• Theoretical modelling
• Single-molecules
• Plasmonics
• Nanoelectronics and molecular electronics
• Nanophotonics
• Nanochips, nanosensors, nanofluidics and nanofabrication
• Carbon-based nanoscale materials and devices
• Biomimetic materials
• Nanobiotechnology/bionanomaterials
• Nanomedicine
• Regulatory approaches and risk assessment
