C60 at 40

logoJoin Us!

Join us at Rice University for C60 at 40, a two-day event marking the 40th anniversary of the discovery of C60 — the molecule that helped launch the era of nanotechnology.

This celebration looks beyond the buckyball to spotlight Rice’s leadership in nanoscience and quantum research. Through keynote talks, panels, and more, we’ll explore how discoveries at the nanoscale and quantum frontier are shaping energy, computing, healthcare, and more.

Come celebrate the legacy, and look ahead to the future of innovation.
