NUFAB is an advanced nanotechnology research facility at Northwestern University. It provides resources for research in MEMs/NEMs, nano-bio, nano/microelectronics, and other related and interdisciplinary areas to Northwestern University community and outside researchers. It currently resides in EG20-NG32 Technological Institute and has all new research equipment. In 2011, it will relocate to a new clean room facility at FG infill that is under design/construction. Many more new research tools will be added at that time.
