On Thursday, January 15, MANA Principal Investigator Katsuhiko Ariga gave a lecture on the Mitaka Network University, which is a public-academic-university-government regional network. This lecture was part of a course planned by “Science Communication,” an incorporated nonprofit organization (NPO) that provides information on topics related to science and technology in response to requests from citizens’ groups.
Principal Investigator Ariga’s lecture was entitled “New Nanotech – Hand-made, hand-operated nanotechnology and new materials” and introduced innovative nanotechnologies that can be manipulated simply by the human hand, even though they are leading-edge science and technology. The lecture received a warm reception from participants.
