Foresight Institute's 2014 Workshop on Directed/Programmable Matter for Energy
Sept. 5-7, 2014, in Palo Alto, California
About the Event:
A small, highly interactive 2-1/2 day meeting focused on long-term prospects for revolutionary advances in energy storage, transmission, and generation based on improved precision in our control of matter.
Wide-ranging thinkers, firmly grounded in a deep and broad understanding of current science will facilitate future research directions, encourage the formation of new multidisciplinary teams, and speed nanoscale advances in the energy field.
This was a private, invitation-only event.
