Nestled within the sprawling Amrita healthcare campus in Kochi, ACNSMM is India's first Nano-Bio Center, and has secured a research funding of Rs.120 crores in a span of ten years, and is now well-recognized nationally and internationally for its contributions in the field of nanomedicine, molecular medicine and energy science. The center receives generous core grants, and individual research grants from the Department of Biotechnology, Department of Science and Technology, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India, and project-based support from investors and individual companies. The Center has published over 400 papers and filed over 83 patents out of which 71 are published. ACNSMM has also set up its first state-of-the-art GMP facility to enable nanotechnology incubator cells in order to aid start-up companies.
