Abstract:
Mitch Ratcliffe: John Patrick leads a discussion on the future of nanotechnology at DEMOfall 2006.

Gian-luca Bona, IBM Almaden Research: Novel storage devices will be self-assembling.

Gerald Hoegl, Metacomb Nanostructures: Pulls a brick of cellular metal from his pocket– "Metal 2.0" that is strong and can absorb impact energy in car bodies and even bullet-proof vests. "And this is still straightforward aluminum." Then he drops it into water and the block of metal floats.
