Dr. Pisano will\u0026nbsp;discuss the global concept of \u0026ldquo;abundance\u0026rdquo; and how exponential growth in appropriate industries actually can be used to\u0026nbsp;eliminate the gap between global supply and global demand of\u0026nbsp;essential services and needs. One of these \u0026ldquo;exponential\u0026nbsp;growth\u0026rdquo; industries is sensors, and there is an estimate that 45\u0026nbsp;trillion sensors will be built and networked in the next 20\u0026nbsp;years. Examples of candidates for \u0026ldquo;Trillion Sensors\u0026rdquo; will be\u0026nbsp;described, including environmental monitoring, mobile health, precision drug delivery and implantable nanotechnology for the\u0026nbsp;human body. For the concluding part of the talk, a novel\u0026nbsp;nanoprinting technology will be described (advective or \u0026ldquo;dry\u0026rdquo;\u0026nbsp;nanoprinting). This new kind of nanoprinting holds promise to\u0026nbsp;deliver the high volumes of sensors needed for the Trillion\u0026nbsp;Sensor universe.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EWoodruff Distinguished Lecture presents Albert P.\u0026nbsp;Pisano, Professor and Dean, Jacobs School of Engineering, UC San\u0026nbsp;Diego\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Woodruff Distinguished Lecture presents Albert P.\u00a0Pisano, Professor and Dean, Jacobs School of Engineering, UC San\u00a0Diego"}],"uid":"27469","created_gmt":"2017-03-27 20:33:28","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:12:14","author":"Kristen Bailey","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-04-24T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2017-04-24T13:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-04-24T13:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-04-24 16:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-04-24 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-04-24 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1182","name":"General"},{"id":"108731","name":"School of Mechanical Engineering"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESusan Volkert\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:susan.volkert@me.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Esusan.volkert@me.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E404 385 5296\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
