Join Foresight Institute and Protocol Labs for the launch of MSEP.one, a groundbreaking molecular systems engineering platform set to revolutionize the design of molecular machine systems for advanced nanotechnologies. The Molecular Systems Engineering Platform MSEP.one application is a free, open-source, cross-platform design environment that combines science and engineering tools to enable the design, simulation, and visualization of molecular machine systems. Spearheaded by nanotechnology pioneer Eric Drexler, the MSEP project addresses a critical gap in the toolkit for researchers and entrepreneurs pursuing transformative nanotechnology.
What to expect:
Experience hands-on demonstrations of MSEP.one
Gain insights into and contribute to the future of molecular nanotechnology
Network with leading scientists, entrepreneurs, and future-oriented technologists
Explore how MSEP.one can provide greater clarity in research directions and accelerate progress in this groundbreaking field.
2. Functional Nanomachine Design Workshop with Jeremy Barton
Dates: October 5 – 6, 2024, 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM
Location: 50 Years Capital HQ, San Francisco
Agenda & participants: Workshop Page
Application form: https://airtable.com/app1SEQ0S1rxEbhaJ/shrk3hiEpF2z6iCuM
Join leading scientists, technologists, and funders in advancing progress on Functional Nanomachines. Building an ecosystem of organizations solving real world problems with the power of nanomachines requires a diverse set of methods for designing, constructing, and operating nanomachines. We need an interdisciplinary R&D effort dedicated to supporting the field of nanomechanics, initiated by a roadmap to chart the path ahead. We invite you to map this path during our two-day workshop.
What to expect:
Explore existing nanomachine development techniques spanning physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering disciplines
Hear from emerging approaches in micro and nano electromechanical systems, the vacuum spm fabrication of quantum systems, SPM manipulation in 3d, DNA/RNA nanotech, and small molecule nanomachines
Assess the operational challenges necessary to construct functional nanomachines including speed, precision, accuracy, and potential for integration
Outline key challenges in nanomachine development and potential solutions to build a prioritized research roadmap for the field
