From the Giant to the Tiny: Explorations Across the Length Scale
In high school, I was an amateur astronomer operating telescopes to observe the vast universe. Now, I am a materials scientist operating electron microscopes to reveal the tiny world. Exploring the nanoscale not only fulfills our curiosity but, more importantly, materializes new technologies that are gradually changing everyone’s lifestyle. We are on an unprecedented expedition to the science and technology of the future, and hopefully, we are reaching such a future with kindness but not hate.
