We regularly take part in various science exhibitions and festivals, providing insights into fascinating phenomena from the nanoworld. Here are a few examples from recent years.
We organize various formats for school classes of different ages (elementary school to high school). Since the network of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute includes researchers from various disciplines, we’re able to offer talks and laboratory visits with a focus on biology, chemistry and physics. Our program also includes the “Atomic Force Microscopy” and “Discover Nano” workshops, which we offer both at schools and at the SNI. Please contact us with as much notice as possible so that we can prepare a suitable program for you.
Those who wish to try out experiments for themselves will find numerous examples on our website. Most of these can be performed using common household materials. As well as showing you how to carry out the experiments step by step, we provide easy-to-understand scientific explanations.
