ever since I was little I was always astounded by science and technology I
astounded by science and technology I
astounded by science and technology I would come home every day out of school
would come home every day out of school
would come home every day out of school and watch hours upon hours of TV
and watch hours upon hours of TV
and watch hours upon hours of TV channels which is discovery or National
channels which is discovery or National
channels which is discovery or National Geographic and because I was so curious
Geographic and because I was so curious
Geographic and because I was so curious about everything
about everything
about everything I would then research about all these
I would then research about all these
I would then research about all these topics that they would talk about and
topics that they would talk about and
topics that they would talk about and would learn about them even more and one
would learn about them even more and one
would learn about them even more and one of these topics not just so much
of these topics not just so much
of these topics not just so much interested me was nanotechnology now the
interested me was nanotechnology now the
interested me was nanotechnology now the way I got introduced internet
way I got introduced internet
way I got introduced internet nanotechnology and my interest in our
nanotechnology and my interest in our
nanotechnology and my interest in our technology is relatively sad to me and
technology is relatively sad to me and
technology is relatively sad to me and this is because I got introduced to it
this is because I got introduced to it
this is because I got introduced to it by a way that described the apocalypse
this is probably just a flock of birds
this is probably just a flock of birds but the apocalypse scenario is called
but the apocalypse scenario is called
but the apocalypse scenario is called the gray goo and this is where a swarm
the gray goo and this is where a swarm
the gray goo and this is where a swarm of self-replicating nanorobot nano
of self-replicating nanorobot nano
of self-replicating nanorobot nano robots dismantle everything in the world
robots dismantle everything in the world
robots dismantle everything in the world and the whole world dies ends done and
and the whole world dies ends done and
and the whole world dies ends done and as you can imagine being introduced to a
as you can imagine being introduced to a
as you can imagine being introduced to a topic like this is sad no one ever wants
topic like this is sad no one ever wants
topic like this is sad no one ever wants to be introduced to something they’re
to be introduced to something they’re
to be introduced to something they’re passionate about in such a way and then
passionate about in such a way and then
passionate about in such a way and then of course I did more and more research
of course I did more and more research
of course I did more and more research and I would learn that really the
and I would learn that really the
and I would learn that really the potential for nanotechnology and the
potential for nanotechnology and the
potential for nanotechnology and the potential to do good with nanotechnology
potential to do good with nanotechnology
potential to do good with nanotechnology is endless for example you can use it in
is endless for example you can use it in
is endless for example you can use it in nano medicine in medicine in material
nano medicine in medicine in material
nano medicine in medicine in material science and much much more for example
science and much much more for example

okay let me just tell you this if you
okay let me just tell you this if you take in the fact that the DNA alpha
take in the fact that the DNA alpha
take in the fact that the DNA alpha helix is 2 nanometers in diameter or the
helix is 2 nanometers in diameter or the
helix is 2 nanometers in diameter or the fact that the cell membrane of a regular
fact that the cell membrane of a regular
fact that the cell membrane of a regular cell is 7 nanometers in diameter and you
cell is 7 nanometers in diameter and you

take into the fact that nanotechnology
take into the fact that nanotechnology deals with parameters of 100 nanometers
deals with parameters of 100 nanometers
deals with parameters of 100 nanometers and often sub Sciences and nano
and often sub Sciences and nano
and often sub Sciences and nano technology such as nano robotics deal in

everything the world is made of everything we know life is made of then
everything we know life is made of then
everything we know life is made of then you have unlimited potential so let me
you have unlimited potential so let me
you have unlimited potential so let me start off we’re talking about
start off we’re talking about
start off we’re talking about implementation of nanotechnology into
implementation of nanotechnology into
implementation of nanotechnology into medicine as you can see here this is the
medicine as you can see here this is the
medicine as you can see here this is the so called nano robot and what these nano
so called nano robot and what these nano
so called nano robot and what these nano robots can do to someone is sent for
robots can do to someone is sent for

attack a tumor in one’s body or they can
attack a tumor in one’s body or they can use lasers and remove blood clots in
use lasers and remove blood clots in
use lasers and remove blood clots in someone’s body or they can help remove
someone’s body or they can help remove
someone’s body or they can help remove gout from someone’s body again using
gout from someone’s body again using
gout from someone’s body again using lasers you know I lost my grandmother to
lasers you know I lost my grandmother to
lasers you know I lost my grandmother to a brain tumor when I was 6 and if
a brain tumor when I was 6 and if
a brain tumor when I was 6 and if nanotechnology and existed back then
nanotechnology and existed back then
nanotechnology and existed back then then she might still be alive today
then she might still be alive today
then she might still be alive today because you could have that ultrasound
because you could have that ultrasound
because you could have that ultrasound medication and you know she could have

therapy now that’s
therapy now that’s medicine right and it sounds really
medicine right and it sounds really
medicine right and it sounds really really nice because it is really really
really nice because it is really really
really nice because it is really really nice but it’s sadly really really hard
nice but it’s sadly really really hard
nice but it’s sadly really really hard to implement and this is because of the
to implement and this is because of the
to implement and this is because of the high introductory cost if you want
high introductory cost if you want
high introductory cost if you want something cheap you have to have
something cheap you have to have
something cheap you have to have economies of scale and sadly that takes
economies of scale and sadly that takes
economies of scale and sadly that takes time to start up so we might see nano
time to start up so we might see nano
time to start up so we might see nano medicine in our lives maybe in a few
medicine in our lives maybe in a few
medicine in our lives maybe in a few decades but something that is not that
decades but something that is not that
decades but something that is not that far away and something that is already
far away and something that is already
far away and something that is already being kind of developed is the
being kind of developed is the
being kind of developed is the implementation of nanotechnology in
implementation of nanotechnology in
implementation of nanotechnology in material science there are these things
material science there are these things
material science there are these things called carbon nanotubes which you can
called carbon nanotubes which you can
called carbon nanotubes which you can see behind me it’s a model and these are
see behind me it’s a model and these are
see behind me it’s a model and these are pretty much allotropes of carbon and as
pretty much allotropes of carbon and as
pretty much allotropes of carbon and as we all know graphite is a really really
we all know graphite is a really really
we all know graphite is a really really good conductor of electricity better
good conductor of electricity better
good conductor of electricity better than copper for example but these are
than copper for example but these are
than copper for example but these are the fact that is very very brittle you
the fact that is very very brittle you
the fact that is very very brittle you cannot actually use it in any electronic
cannot actually use it in any electronic
cannot actually use it in any electronic devices because it would just break
devices because it would just break
devices because it would just break however carbon nanotubes the ones
however carbon nanotubes the ones
however carbon nanotubes the ones pictured here are nearly 100 times
pictured here are nearly 100 times
pictured here are nearly 100 times stronger than steel yet have the same
stronger than steel yet have the same
stronger than steel yet have the same conductive properties of graphite so you
conductive properties of graphite so you
conductive properties of graphite so you could use these carbon nanotubes instead
could use these carbon nanotubes instead
could use these carbon nanotubes instead of copper wires and allow your
of copper wires and allow your
of copper wires and allow your electronics to function at a faster rate
electronics to function at a faster rate
electronics to function at a faster rate but that’s not much as electricity is
but that’s not much as electricity is
but that’s not much as electricity is already cut copper wire is already
already cut copper wire is already
already cut copper wire is already relatively good but the thing that
relatively good but the thing that
relatively good but the thing that carbon nanotubes excel at is the fact
carbon nanotubes excel at is the fact
carbon nanotubes excel at is the fact that they have a really nice aspect
that they have a really nice aspect
that they have a really nice aspect ratio for example if you had a carbon
ratio for example if you had a carbon
ratio for example if you had a carbon nanotube the width of your hair it would
nanotube the width of your hair it would
nanotube the width of your hair it would be up to 40 meters long and this would
be up to 40 meters long and this would
be up to 40 meters long and this would be invaluable in the constant course
be invaluable in the constant course
be invaluable in the constant course that you a human kind has on making
that you a human kind has on making
that you a human kind has on making things smaller on making electronic
things smaller on making electronic
things smaller on making electronic devices smaller so they could fit in
devices smaller so they could fit in
devices smaller so they could fit in everything that you could possibly fit
everything that you could possibly fit
everything that you could possibly fit anything into
and when you have something so small and
and when you have something so small and actually allow it to be implemented into
actually allow it to be implemented into
actually allow it to be implemented into generic electronics that we use today it
generic electronics that we use today it
generic electronics that we use today it will be great awesome right
will be great awesome right
will be great awesome right cool gadgets but in my opinion what’s
cool gadgets but in my opinion what’s
cool gadgets but in my opinion what’s even cooler than that is using carbon
even cooler than that is using carbon
even cooler than that is using carbon nanotubes in construction projects as I
nanotubes in construction projects as I
nanotubes in construction projects as I said carbon nanotubes are nearly 100
said carbon nanotubes are nearly 100
said carbon nanotubes are nearly 100 times stronger than steel but what I
times stronger than steel but what I
times stronger than steel but what I didn’t mention is that they have
didn’t mention is that they have
didn’t mention is that they have one-sixth the density of Steel so if you
one-sixth the density of Steel so if you
one-sixth the density of Steel so if you could replace steel parts of a structure
could replace steel parts of a structure
could replace steel parts of a structure for example the Burj Kalifa tallest
for example the Burj Kalifa tallest
for example the Burj Kalifa tallest building in the world
building in the world
building in the world you could have a much lighter structure
you could have a much lighter structure
you could have a much lighter structure allowing for the structure to be bigger
allowing for the structure to be bigger
allowing for the structure to be bigger and tall buildings are pretty cool as
and tall buildings are pretty cool as
and tall buildings are pretty cool as well
well
well so if you can have tall buildings using
so if you can have tall buildings using
so if you can have tall buildings using carbon nanotubes or for example if you
carbon nanotubes or for example if you
carbon nanotubes or for example if you could just allow buildings to be safer
could just allow buildings to be safer
could just allow buildings to be safer and withstand in terms of withstanding
and withstand in terms of withstanding
and withstand in terms of withstanding earthquakes then carbon nanotubes could
earthquakes then carbon nanotubes could
earthquakes then carbon nanotubes could also save thousands of countless lives
also save thousands of countless lives
also save thousands of countless lives and one final thing that carbon
and one final thing that carbon
and one final thing that carbon nanotubes can have in terms of the
nanotubes can have in terms of the
nanotubes can have in terms of the structural integrity of objects is the
structural integrity of objects is the
structural integrity of objects is the fact that they could be used in
fact that they could be used in
