CIME to celebrate Science Week in Voiron!

Leti and STMicroelectronics retirees in Voiron turned to CIME Nanotech to help local volunteers bring Science Week back to Voiron after a two-year hiatus. CIME Nanotech helped with the preparations in the run-up to Science Week and trained the facilitators who will run the event from October 12–15, the week before the Parvis des sciences science fair in Grenoble.

CIME Nanotech will also provide equipment on loan: force-feedback joysticks that translate the physical forces at play at the nano scale into human-scale forces for two haptics (the science of touch) workshops and microscopes for a booth entitled “A look at the very small.” CIME Nanotech Director Ahmad Bsiesy will tell the story of electronic chips from 1960 to the present at a lecture on Sunday at 4 p.m.
