MAKING LITTLE TINY PRODUCTS ???

NANOTECHNOLOGY

Understanding & controlling of matter at dimensions of 1 to 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable novel applications

One-billionth of a meter.Five little atoms in a row.

New NanoBio Paradigm

Value creation transforms from

physical to intellectual

Information/ knowledge content of

NanoBio products eclipses their

physical value

Industrial Age:

Conquered space

Information Age:

Conquered time

Bioterials Age:

Conquer matter

Recommendation:

Every high school should require 4 years of biology
