A ceremony will take place at 5 p.m. in the Dome Room of the Rotunda to celebrate the opening of the University of Virginia's Nanoelectronics Center on Wednesday.

The center's organizers hope to use the technology to find the next great innovation in nanotechnology.

Scientists will be working on creating faster, smaller and more affordable technologies which can be used on everything from cell phones, to cars to inside homes.

The center was launched in partnership with the College of William & Mary and Old Dominion University. The center is funded through grants and donations from other organizations including the National Science Foundation.
