NSW AIP Physics in Industry Day 2008

“Nanotechnology: a Catalyst for Australian Manufacturing?”

Held at CSIRO Materials Science and Engineering, Lindfield, Sydney. 12th November 2008

How will nanotechnology influence manufacturing in Australia? Does it
represent a new paradigm in materials that will drive fantastic, futuristic
products or it is destined to be a collection of incremental improvements?
Do the benefits outweigh the unknowns?

Presentations from industry, business, universities, other research organisations and government

The day will feature:

• Update on government activities, regulation and the state of community attitudes towards nanotechnology
• Australian nano-manufacturing case studies
• Overviews of university nanotech research
• Overviews of government nanotech research & regulatory directions
• Laboratory tours of CSIRO’s and NMI’s facilities
• Research poster competition with $1000 awarded to winner (see poster for details)
