Design London STIR: Altered States: the macro scale impact of nano-scale technologies May 1, 2008

"Please join us on 1 May for a very special STIR Lecture which explores the opportunities that revolutionary new bio-nano technologies create and their impact on design-led Innovation. We will look at how designers can exploit material properties at a nano-scale to create macro scale changes in the world around us - from revolutionary architecture to haute couture, from personalised healthcare delivery to radical vehicle design.

Hear from the research leaders in this field who even have designs for a cloak of invisibility a la Harry Potter. The lecture and conversation will be led by Professor Tony Cass, Research Director Bionanotechnology Centre, Imperial College London."
