Plenary 4: Visionary talk-how does nature use
nano? How can biomimicry inform new technologies?
Is biomimicry environmentally sound? (Angela Belcher) |

Panel of agency representatives: How does each
agency view its research agenda as it relates to
the environment? Can the research be applied to
an environmental problem; can the research prevent
an environmental problem; might the research cause
an environmental problem? (no slides--5 minutes/agency) |
