In our previous editorials, (1,2) we underscored ACS Nano’s dedication to nurturing talent and promoting diversity among early career nanoscientists worldwide. The ACS Nano Lectureship Award embodies this commitment, recognizing two young investigators who have made substantial impacts in their respective fields. Today, we are excited to announce the 2023 laureates of the ACS Nano Lectureship. The competition was intense, with numerous deserving candidates. Our selection committee was astounded by the groundbreaking work of our laureates and other exceptional nominees. We are proud to present the ACS Nano Lectureship to Prof. Deep Jariwala from the University of Pennsylvania, USA, and Dr. Nako Nakatsuka from ETH Zürich, Switzerland (Figure 1). Figure 1. Our 2023 ACS Nano Lectureship Laureates are Prof. Deep Jariwala of the University of Pennsylvania (left) and Dr. Nako Nakatsuka of ETH Zürich (right). Image credits: Deep Jariwala and Nako Nakatsuka, respectively. Prof. Deep Jariwala, an Assistant Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, is a trailblazer in the field of solid-state optoelectronics and low-dimensional materials. His work focuses on the integration of nanostructured materials and advanced spectroscopic techniques to better understand charge and energy transport in contemporary semiconductor optoelectronics. Dr. Nako Nakatsuka, a Senior Scientist at the Laboratory of Biosensors and Bioelectronics at ETH Zürich, focuses on deciphering the molecular interactions of DNA-based recognition elements called aptamers, which capture small-molecule targets with high specificity and selectivity. By investigating and harnessing aptamer–target interactions, she is enabling the design of next-generation nanotools for applications such as biosensing, clinical diagnostics, and drug discovery. We are also delighted to recognize the finalists for the ACS Nano Lectureship, listed alphabetically: Cesar De La Fuente from the University of Pennsylvania, João Conde from Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Junsuk Rho from Pohang University of Science and Technology, Wei Tao from Harvard Medical School, and Wenyan Yin from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Their exceptional contributions to the field deserve recognition. The ACS Nano Impact Award aims to honor a team of authors for their significant contributions to a research work published in ACS Nano during the two calendar years immediately preceding the award year. It is our pleasure to announce that the inaugural ACS Nano Impact Award recipients, a team led by Prof. Jingyu Sun and Prof Guifu Zou from Soochow University, China (Figure 2). They are recognized for their influential research work on 3D-printed Zn-ion hybrid capacitor enabled by Ti3C2 MXene ink, (3) with Zhaodi Fan sharing the honor as the first author. Their research has the potential to revolutionize energy storage, offering significant advancements in the fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Figure 2.

Finally, we would like to acknowledge the finalists of the ACS Nano Impact Award, listed in alphabetical order: Chung Hang Jonathan Choi from the Chinese University of Hong Kong for the work on dopamine receptor-mediated binding and cellular uptake of polydopamine-coated nanoparticles, (4) Nathan Gianneschi from Northwestern University for the work on direct observation of emulsion morphology, dynamics, and demulsification via liquid phase transmission electron microscopy, (5) Stephen Kent from the University of Melbourne for the work on providing evidence that PEG-specific antibodies were boosted in human by SARS-CoV-2 lipid nanoparticle mRNA vaccines, (6) and Teresa Pellegrino from the Italian Institute of Technology for the work on the automated fabrication of perovskite nanocrystals in water with superior stability and optical features. (7) Each of these finalists has made significant contributions to their fields through their innovative research, enhancing our understanding and application of nanoscience and nanotechnology. We invite you to join us in acknowledging and celebrating the propound accomplishments of our laureates and finalists. We will be hosting an ACS Nano Symposium at the upcoming ACS Fall 2023 National Meeting and Exposition in San Francisco to honor their contributions. Together, we can fuel intellectual growth and pave the way for a promising future in nanoscience and nanotechnology. We eagerly anticipate featuring your insightful perspectives and exceptional work in our forthcoming publications.
