Dear All, Finally our 3 days of NanoDays event is starting from today. This year we're expecting to have more than 850 participants, including over 130 registered volunteers! In that respect, I offer my heartiest thanks to you all for your kind support! On behalf of NanoDays team, I'd like to invite you all and your family to NanoDays in the evening today, April 13th, 6-8pm. This evening is particularly arranged for the Birck families and Girls scouts. If you can't make it today then please plan to stop by sometime either on Thursday or Friday between 9am and 2pm. It'll certainly encourage our volunteers and young visitors. Thank you again and hope to see you all at NanoDays!
