Engineering the Future of Life and Health: 20 Years of Discovery, Innovation, and Technology

Save-the-date and join the Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology as it celebrates two decades of cutting-edge research at the interface of nanotechnology, biology, and engineering at our 2026 annual symposium. This year's theme, Engineering the Future of Life and Health: 20 Years of Discovery, Innovation, and Technology, highlights how INBT's multidisciplinary community continues to pioneer technologies that reshape human health and medicine, from molecular design and cellular programming to human health and performance. The symposium will feature sessions led by INBT faculty representing our five research pillars—cancer, sensing, aging, genome engineering, and cell programming—showcasing cutting-edge advances and future directions that define the next era of convergent bioengineering.

All are welcome to attend the event on May 4, 2026 on the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus. It will include lectures, a poster competition, and networking reception. More information will be posted on our website at this link as it becomes available.
