'Destination Nano’ Explores Advances in Nanotechnology
Abstract:
Nanotechnology's promise is to revolutionize everything from how the world "powers up" each day to how cancer is treated. At UMass Lowell's "Destination Nano" conference, government, business and academic leaders will determine how far nano has come and how far stakeholders must go to get nano-based products out of the laboratory and onto assembly lines.
The conference and workshops - co-sponsored by UMass Lowell and the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative's John Adams Innovation Institute - will feature the latest information on sensors, nanomaterials, environmental health and safety, nanomedicine and energy. The university's renowned team of nano experts, including professors Joey Mead and Carol Barry, will participate, along with counterparts from industry, government and academia.
