Award winning nano-pix

Posted on October 1, 2015 by Carl Batt

Each year the National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (a friend of Nanooze) hosts a contest for the best nano images.  This years winner was taken by Elizabeth Sawicki from the University of Illinois.  The images are of nanometer-sized gold nanoparticles in the brain after being whiffed up the nose.  (not people, rats).  The work is being done to develop new treatments for things like strokes.  Ms. Sawicki is in the Medical Scholars Program.  Congrats!envisionano_winner_september_2015
