Foresight Nanotech Institute Feynman Prize
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Foresight Nanotech Institute Feynman Prize is an award given by Foresight Nanotech Institute every year for significant advancements in nanotechnology. It is named after physicist Richard Feynman. Feynman's 1959 talk There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom is considered to be the first talk on nanotechnology.
