Online lecture | Nanomaterials, new technologies and war: Does size matter?
This lecture explores the intersection of nanomaterials, emerging technologies, and modern warfare. Dr. Kobi Leins discusses how nanotechnology impacts military capabilities, from enhancing energy storage and protective equipment to subtler applications like neurological and biological warfare agents. The presentation highlights concrete examples, explains the underlying technologies, and delves into the complex legal and scientific questions surrounding their use, emphasizing the need for international law to adapt. It's presented by the Royal Armouries, the UK's national collection of arms and armour.
