Outreach Workshop: Nanoscience: The Science of Small
What’s the smallest thing you can think of? We’ll learn about the science of the teeny tiny with activities that discuss scale, nano in nature and nanotechnology. Activities include explorations in scale and measurement, including a model of an Atomic Force Microscope which scientists use to “feel” things at the nanoscale. We’ll also discover how nanotechnology can be modeled after things found in nature using a very interesting property found in kale leaves.
