The Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery (also known as Kavli Oxford and Kavli INsD) is an interdisciplinary research institute focused on advancing nanoscience. Established in April 2021 as the 20th institute funded by the Kavli Foundation, it is the first at the University of Oxford to integrate the life, medical, and physical sciences.

The institute is led by Professor Dame Carol Robinson, a chemist specialising in mass spectrometry and the structural study of proteins. Kavli Oxford addresses major global challenges, including antimicrobial resistance, brain and mental health, infectious diseases, and malaria. The institute also develops advanced instrumentation, bridging physical sciences with cellular research.

Researchers at Kavli Oxford represent diverse disciplines, including structural biology, biochemistry, pathology, chemistry, physics, physiology, and engineering. Their work is centred on the nanoscale—the scale of proteins, viruses, and DNA—with a focus on uncovering the fundamental mechanisms of cellular processes.

In addition to scientific research, the institute promotes an inclusive and collaborative working environment, aiming to contribute to transformative discoveries in nanoscience that enhance the understanding of biological systems.
