Water is being impacted by multiple negative factors. True statements\, and researchers are working to solve the issues with getting clean water to 8 billion people. \nNanotechnology concepts are being applied not only to detect toxins and measure the quality of water but also to purify polluted water and sources. The science and technology that is driving these developments is dependent upon multiple concepts from traditional physics and chemistry concepts. In this workshop\, applications of nanotechnology for water sensing and purification will be explained and used as examples of how nanoscience concepts can be introduced into tradition high school and college level courses. Examples of activities and potential experiments will be covered. \n  \n  \nImage Credit: Photo by Amritanshu Sikdar on Unsplash URL:https://micronanoeducation.org/event/water-water-everywhere-nanotechnology-applications-zoom-workshop/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://micronanoeducation.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/amritanshu-sikdar-LoGnr-w1D8E-unsplash-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240504T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240504T120000 DTSTAMP:20240329T032626 CREATED:20240326T211134Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T214818Z UID:1505274-1714813200-1714824000@micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Biomimicry: Lessons from Nature (Zoom Workshop) DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Deb Newberry \nMay 4\, 2024 \n9:00 am to 12:00 noon PACIFIC \nREGISTER HERE\n  \nThe exponential increase in nanotechnology research and equipment had led to a new level of understanding of the world around us. That understanding is resulting in new applications and products. \nThese include glaucoma detection based on the structure in a butterfly’s wing\, shark skin structures applied to airplane wings that reduces air friction and increases fuel efficiency and small stations that pull water out of desert air. The research and multiple applications rely on macro level traditional science concepts as well as phenomena that only occurs at the nanoscale. This workshop will investigate several examples of nature’s applications of nanoscale phenomena and how researchers are applying that knowledge to new products and applications. Education content applicable for integration into traditional science courses will be presented. \n  \n  \nImage Credit: Photo by Michal Mrozek on Unsplash URL:https://micronanoeducation.org/event/biomimicry-lessons-from-nature-zoom-workshop/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://micronanoeducation.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/michal-mrozek-y0iTdaWGBxI-unsplash-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
