On July 7 2016, the CoPilot project partners give an insight view of the many new functionalization and applications of tailored nanoparticles in the workshop "The Nanoparticle Kitchen - particles und functions à la carte", taking place in Wuerzburg, Germany. Join the Fraunhofer ISC's lab tour of the "Nanoparticle Kitchen", listen to the presentations of research institutes, project executing organizations and industry and discuss your ideas with experts. Nanoparticles offer many options for today's and tomorrow's products.
