Nano@Guelph 2009 Reveals Small Wonders to High School Students
Abstract:
Think "nano" is strictly about your iPod music player? Think again. A series of events at the University of Guelph this month will allow people to see and learn what nanoscience is all about.
The nano-themed events are taking place during National Science and Technology Week Oct. 16 to 24. They will promote Guelph's nanoscience program on campus and off, including lab tours for high school students and an outreach event planned for the Waterloo Regional Children's Museum.
Some 250 high school classes will visit Guelph's nanoscience teaching labs from Oct. 20 to 23 as part of 2009. They are expected to learn about U of G's program, view the University's teaching facilities and equipment and make a solar cell.
