Micro & Nano Technology Society-wide Forum Micro- and nano-scale phenomena and processes are widely explored across many ASME divisions to create new applications and to improve the existing engineering systems. This forum seeks to bring together ASME members from different disciplines/divisions with a focus on micro and nanotechnology. This year, the Forum will be held on Wednesday, November 14th, 5 PM - 8 PM at the mid point of the IMECE, in the form of a poster session and social hour. Poster entries are called for from papers already accepted to any IMECE technical session. The poster entries should be related to micro and nanotechnology, their phenomena, processes and applications. More info...
