   PRINTING SCIENCE IN THREE DIMENSIONS
   ------------------------------------

   We shall introduce a new low-cost technology available for low-cost
   creation and replication of small plastic objects. Three dimensional
   printing is taking on a new meaning and lies in its ability to
   popularize and democratize science whether in remote areas of the
   world or in outer space. Museums can already distribute exact copies
   of rare or delicate fossils as widely as they need. And students can
   print out molecules to figure out their complex structures. The ongoing
   experiences of the ICTP Science Dissemination Unit will be presented
   and discussed, and a live demo of 3D printing will be carried out.



     Everybody is welcome to attend.
