Nanotechnology Town Hall Meetings
Learn more about this exciting new arena from some of the leaders in the field at the public Nanotechnology Town Hall Meetings sponsored by the International Institute for Nanotechnology and the Northwestern University Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center and Center for Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence.
These are the first in a series of Town Hall meetings that will include an informative lecture by world-renown scientists and engineers followed by your questions.
The goal of these meetings is to provide an opportunity for the community to learn the fundamentals about nanotechnology and to explore the larger questions about the smallest technology.
We invite you to join us!
