Nanoscale materials are transforming our world. Using new micro-fabrication techniques, we are now able to engineer them in new ways. But how safe is this? • A lecture by Jacqueline McGlade, Frank Jackson Foundation Professor of the Environment 13 November 2018 • https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-an... • Nanoscale materials are transforming our world. They are not new - some occur naturally everywhere. What is new is our ability to engineer them from common materials for optical, electronic, mechanical, medical and enzymatic applications using new micro-fabrication techniques. • Just like the extraordinary world in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the nanoworld contains materials that are exceptional. But the history of exposure to asbestos raises questions about assuring the safety of nanomaterials in the future. • Website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk • Twitter: / greshamcollege • Facebook: / greshamcollege • Instagram: / greshamcollege
