Welcome to nano²hybrids

Ever been curious about how a real science project operates? What it's like working in a research lab? What happens when unexpected things happen? Ever wanted to get involved in cutting-edge nanotechnology research, meet the scientists, and be there when the latest discoveries are made?

With nano²hybrids, for the first time this is possible... Over the coming 3 years, the key scientists involved in this European research project will be making video diaries and posting them on this web site, along with blogs of their work and lives. Join in the discussion via feedback through the website - follow the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs, the new discoveries and the dead ends - in short, find out what doing science research is really like!

The nano²hybrids project will commence in 2007, so please check back soon. In the meantime if you wish to contact the nano²hybrids team:
