Description: UC Santa Barbara’s Center for Nanotechnology in Society (CNS) and the California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) are inviting the Santa Barbara community to attend a casual public forum called “Nano-Meeter” to discuss China’s role in nanotechnology. This event will provide an overview of China's effort to become a world technology powerhouse through large-scale government investment in nanotechnology and other high-tech fields.
Leading the discussion will be Rich Appelbaum, CNS Co-Principal Investigator, and Alec Wodtke, UCSB Professor of Chemistry. Prof. Appelbaum recently returned from an extensive research trip in China, where he interviewed key leaders in Chinese nanotechnology R&D. Prof. Wodtke heads a $1.5 million U.S.-China research and training partnership established by the National Science Foundation.
Refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to the public. Space is limited. RSVPs are requested.
