Ep441: With a wee bit of quantum squinting

The very tiny, from the top down or bottom up From computer parts to walking DNA, We take a look at a couple of ways nanotechnology is constructed. Join us on patreon.com/thelabwithbrad for extra special extra stuff! We covered some of what we talked about today in more detail in a previous episode. Here’s a link. Ep 285: A lucky accident In fact, we did an entire series on computers computing and the history there of. Here’s a link to the first episode in that series. Ep270: Stone age computers And here are a couple of videos on using DNA for nanotech. DNA NANOTECH Could Change EVERYTHING DNA Nanostructures: From Design to Biological Function

Back soon Things both planned and unexpected keep messing up our publishing schedule, but, we haven’t quit! We’ll be back.

Lithography, photography, and a side order of engines The first application of nanotechnology was to build our modern computers. Join us for a look at how that got started.
