Nanoscience Camp [July 6 – 9]

Campers will be introduced to nanoscience and nanotechnology as a leading, cutting-edge science with an emphasis on nano in nature, health, energy and the environment.

What is nanoscience? Nanoscience is the study of structures and materials on the scale of nanometers. How big is a nanometer? To give you an idea, a piece of paper is about 75,000 nanometers thick. When structures are made small enough—in the nanometer size range—they can take on interesting and useful properties.
