Open SDU Seminar by Carlo FONDA:

    Wednesday, 24 October at 14:00,
    SDU-Lab (Galileo Guest House, Ground Floor)



  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.
