The Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network (NISE Net) is a national community of researchers and informal science educators dedicated to fostering public awareness, engagement and understanding of nanoscale science, engineering and technology. CNS-ASU is a core partner of NISE Net enhancing informal science education with expertise on the societal aspects of NSE.
Through CNS-ASU's influence, social and ethical issues are now squarely at the center of new nano mini exhibits that NISE Net has developed for display at science museums around the nation. NISE Net also commits resources for CNS-ASU personnel to train science museum staff and volunteers in how to discuss social and ethical issues with museum visitors.
