The DIY Nano app allows families to experience and learn about nanoscale science, engineering, and technology at home or on the go. The app was released thanks to a collaboration between Lawrence Hall of Science, Sciencenter, Emily Maletz Graphic Design and the Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network (NISE Network).
The DIY Nano app was supported by the National Science Foundation.

The app provides free, easy to use, hands-on activities at your fingertips. Each activity includes material lists, step-by-step instructions, and detailed explanations. The activity materials are widely available and inexpensive. The app includes links to family friendly videos.

In the globalised environment, the interconnection and interdependence of economies enable pathogens to spread in unprecedented ways and extents. Human to human transmission (close encounters of the first kind) occur with pathogens that are well adapted to the human host, and spread between countries and continents. In a similar way, pathogens spreading between animals (close encounters of the second kind) spread not only within a farm, but also between different farms, due to trade, or live animals or vector movement, in a transboundary manner.
