Seeing and Building with Atoms: Adventures in the Nano World

Do you think Physics is only about stars and mad scientists? Come to this event and you will discover a new Physics world where fundamental physics knowledge is used “as simply as possible but not simpler” to build atom by atom the technology of future.  Come and learn how we make the smallest electronic circuits in the world, how we can build devices that power your cell phone while you walk in the streets, or how we pull single DNA molecules to understand the secrets of life.
