What is IMEC?

The Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology (INBT) International Research Experience for Students (IRES) program began in 2009. INBT’s IRES program, funded by the National Science Foundation, allows students to collaborate with researchers from Hopkins and The Inter-University MircroElectronics Centre (IMEC) in Leuven, Belgium.

Students work at IMEC’s world-class microfabrication facility and learn to design, fabricate and test chip-based platforms and integrated microelectronic systems for biomedical applications. The goal of the program is to help students gain a broader, global perspective of science and technology.

But what is IMEC? Here is a video explaining many of IMEC's capabilities and research projects.
