Nanotechnology College Course: Lesson 01 - Nanocars, molecular electronics & start-ups

Join Dr. James Tour, a distinguished NAE Chemist from Rice University, for a comprehensive and free nanotechnology course!
Lesson 01
What does Jerry Seinfeld have to do with business and nanotechnology?
• Introduction to Nanotechnology Applications: The lecture discusses innovative uses of nanotechnology, such as using graphene nanoribbons to repair spinal cord injuries in rats, showcasing the potential for medical breakthroughs.
• Encouraging Creativity in Students: The course emphasizes the importance of consistent creativity, inspired by Jerry Seinfeld's method of daily joke writing. Students are tasked with inventing something new every week to foster innovative thinking.
• Examples of Nanotechnology Innovations: Various nanotechnology-based inventions are highlighted, including advanced clutches using ferrofluids and materials that can absorb CO2 from plastic waste.
• Historical Context and Key Figures: The lecture provides historical context about the development of nanotechnology, mentioning influential figures like Richard Feynman, Rick Smalley, and Michael Roco, and their contributions to the field.
• Networking and Opportunities: Students are encouraged to leverage their current access to influential individuals and build a network of contacts, emphasizing the long-term value of these relationships for their careers.
A variety of topics related to chemistry and nanotechnology will be discussed. Some topics are classical while others are current. Topics may include nanocars, molecular electronics, how to form a start-up company.

As a pre-pharmacy student, I throughly enjoyed this lecture.

[@carlosnarvaez5086]

I'm an inventor , I'm always improvising , I have built four motorbicycles they are all my own design , it took me a while to build the first one but through trials and a few errors I came up with a model that I rode for three years , 80 miles to a gallon of gasoline , 49cc motor , and up to 30 to 35 mph , now I know what works and what doesn't. I love science and I love JESUS , I firmly believe that HE taught me everything I learned and when I get stuck I ask the Holy Spirit for directions and I become inspired again , I can't do nothing without HIM ❤❤❤

Cool

[@hisnameisiam808]

Amen brother! Where are you? I'm in Oregon and I've also done a lot of mechanical work on my own. I haven't created a motor bike from scratch but I feel pretty confident in my abilities ha ha. I really want to build a motorbike though! It sounds like fun! I just purchased an electric(lectric brand) bike and they are awesome but limited.

is the motor really loud?

Hi Jim, I’m a physician (and a believer in Christ!). For the rodent with the spinal cord severed, does the graphene get absorbed over time or is permanent? If permanent, any long term complications from having it in the spinal cord?

Fighter Pilots. I was a Security Policeman. We guarded the planes and the Alert Barracks. Some Plots were jerks, most were pretty good, a couple were GREAT. To a man they all thought they were Orville Wright & Chuck Yeager on Steroids.

[@codonmatrix4510]

Thing is, some fighter jocks never survive their first real encounter with an enemy. Others go on to become aces, and some just fall in between. It's a combination of sheer luck and inherent skill. Even the best ace in the world can be shot down if things go completely wrong. At that point, skill no longer plays a very big role. Sierra Hotel India Tango happens.

There’s a 2012 JACS paper called “Silver-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Chlorination of Aliphatic Carboxylic Acids” where some Chinese organic chemists carried out the Hunsdiecker reaction using a silver catalyst instead of a silver reagent and tBuOCl instead of chlorine. I’d like to know if Jim thinks the science in the paper is accurate.

Humans are not ready for these technologies. Think about it. Power can be good or evil.

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodin1559]

We would need a global Christian revival on the scale of the Protestant Reformation or the American Revolution before humans could be trusted. Even than rogue elements could do extreme damage with even one of these techniques.

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodin1559]

God allowed Humanity to have nukes because He knows we are afraid to use them. But with these technologies there is no inherit inhibition.

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodin1559]

There's no mutually assured destruction. But still all the power of nukes.

[@alantasman8273]

I wonder if they said that about fire...technological innovation is often driven by the need for self preservation. Man is responsible for how that technology is used..for good or evil. Unfortunately, the heart of man is desperately wicked...which is why men try to enslave other men and bend them to their will. Only those Jesus the Christ will ultimately be free.

I think I must be a T squared person, because I can come up with ideas and inventions all day long, everyday! Been this way since I was a young child! I can geek out in any field of science. Can't say that it has ever helped me all that much! Most people don't care about what you know or what you can do! You have to shove your ideas down their throat before they pay attention and when they do they just steal it and make a cheap knock off!

James Tour debate tactics: (1) Draw some chemistry mechanism on the blackboard that nobody asked for and doesn't explain anything (2) Point the chalk at Dave and scream at him to do something with it, whatever that is (3) When Dave shows recent scientific literature disproving you, just scream that he didn't do something with your blackboard diagram (4) Write "clueless" beside each of your pre-written topics like you were going to do anyway, no matter what Dave said (5) Did I forget screaming?

[@thunderous-one]

@@DrakRahi you will note in my comment is stated “some” I did not state “all” thus, your response is pointless. For example, whilst google/youtube have uses, they have also become verbs. Meaning, people now do not do the research, they just look up the enquiry and get an instance answer. There is no mental process taking place, no calculations, no meditating on a matter and thus no discernment. Well, at least I know what a woman is, a human being who does not posses their own penis.

Why does Jim refuse to say Dave Farina’s name? It can’t be because he doesn’t want to give Dave any free advertising because Jim usually makes it incredibly obvious who he’s talking about whenever he talks about “that KZbin guy”. It also can’t be because he considers him so inferior, his name isn’t even worth mentioning because that would make him look elitist and insecure. And we all know that’s not true, eh?
