2013年5月23日上午✬，曼徹斯特大學創新研究中心的Philip Shapira教授在我院開展了題為“Interpreting trajectories of nanotechnology research and innovation”的講座。
講座以納米技術為例🤽♂️，探索了這一新興技術在研究和創新中的關系🥰，Shapira教授還進一步探討了是否存在納米技術悖論（Nanotechnology paradox）的問題🎎。Shapira教授和同事在研究中對全球出版物🈸、專利和納米技術企業進行了分析，並對下一代納米材料和系統的轉型與適應過程進行了評估。這項研究將對納米技術及其他新興技術的預期管理和治理產生影響👩🏻⚕️🧔🏼♂️。
演講結束後，Shapira教授耐心回答了現場老師和同學感興趣的相關問題。此次講座不僅得到了我院政策中心老師和研究生同學的熱情參與，同時還吸引了其他EON4和高校的老師和同學。
