In just a few weeks after a group of UC Berkeley scientists destroyed the competition for the American Chemical Society’s “What is Nano?” contest, UC Berkeley will host the sixth annual Berkeley Nanotechnology Forum on April 26.

According to the event’s Website, the forum will consider quite a few things:

This all-day forum on Sunday, April 26 is a great opportunity to learn more about nanotechnology today. Listen to views of top scientists, entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, and meet your fellow Bay Area and Berkeley community members spearheading research and innovation in the field of nanotechnology.

This theme for this year’s forum is: Solutions for Tomorrow. In addition to prominent speakers, the forum will feature a student poster session, showcasing the state-of-the-art research of the Bay Area researchers and students in nanoscience and nanoengineering.

“Solutions for Tomorrow?” How’s this one: the three laws. Is there any better way to prevent a robopocalypse? We submit that there is not. And you, too, can submit your nano solutions. To participate in the forum, which includes complimentary registration (free breakfast, lunch and a T-shirt!) check out this page.
