Textiles are changing thanks to nanotechnology. Better healthcare systems, protective clothing and integrated electronics are just some of the applications. But could such technologies be exploited to steal information or cheat in sporting events?
Nanoparticles for new vaccines, nanostructures on credit cards, microscopy and spins are just some of the range of research projects currently underway at institutions across Switzerland.
Christoph Gerber is a pioneer in scanning probe microscopy. He made major contributions to the invention of both the Scanning Probe Microscope and the Atomic Force Microscope and is a co-inventor of biochemical sensors based on AFM technology.
American swimmer Michael Phelps stunned the world as he racked up eight gold medals and broke seven world records in just eight days at the Beijing Olympics. And he wasn’t the only one breaking records. Almost all of the 25 swimming record breakers had one thing in common – skin-tight swimwear that helped them glide through the water. Elaine Mulcahy explores nanotech advances that are helping athletes win gold.
