The nanomanipulation workshop series provides an international forum for researchers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology to exchange knowledge, present advances, and foster collaboration in the field of controlled manipulation of nanoscale objects, (bio)molecules, atoms, charges, spins or even photons down to the atomic scale. 

The workshop brings together experts working with scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and complementary experimental techniques to address the challenges associated. This also includes basic techniques of manipulation, theoretical description of manipulation processes as well as applications ranging from nano- and mesoscale friction to spontaneous assembly of nano-objects. 

The 10^th Nanomanipulation workshop follows the 1^st Workshop in Cascais (Portugal), 2^nd in Tartu (Estonia), 3^rd in Madrid (Spain), 4^th in Kraków (Poland), 5^th in Mulhouse (France), 6^th in Giessen (Germany), 7^th in Jena (Germany), 8^th in Krakow (Poland) and 9^th in Madrid (Spain).

We invite you to join us to learn the latest advances in this multidisciplinary field while enjoying the incomparable landscape of the French Alps.

• Abstract submission:  From February 26^th 2026.

• Registration: From February 26^th 2026 to April 22^th 2026 (please, register early to reserve your spot, attendance limited to 50 people)

• Conference:From June 1^st to June 6^th 2026

The 10^th nanomanipulation workshop will be held at the Centre Paul Langevin, Aussois (France) from the 1^st to 6^th of June 2026.  The village is on the border of France's first National Park, the Vanoise National Park. Although not as well known as other resorts right on the other side of the mountain like Val Thorens, it is popular with the French as ski resort in winter and as mountain destination in summer.
