Nanotechnology is the study of the very, very small. By definition a nanometre is one billionth of a metre, which is about 50 000 times thinner than the width of a human hair.
Dr Watt will explain some of the work being carried out at Victoria University of Wellington and the MacDiarmid Institute, its possible applications and how New Zealand can harness nanotechnology for the future.
