One of the main challenges of nanotechnology is the exact placement of nanoparticles, which we cannot see and do not have small enough tweezers to manipulate them with.

Through a task that will be presented and the way for its accomplishment, we will experience the road that the nano-scientist goes through: from setting the scientific goal, through choosing the building blocks, to achieving the solution, while integrating knowledge from chemistry, physics, and mathematics (as a multidisciplinary science ought to do).
