The Batsheva de Rothschild Workshop on Robotics for Nano-Structure Delivery in Agriculture - August 30-31

Integrating robotics and nano-structure delivery is an exciting new field with promising applications in agriculture. The Batsheva de Rothschild Workshop on Robotics for Nano-Structure Delivery in Agriculture aims to serve as a critical bridge between the fields with in one of their most promising applications fields.

The workshop will bring together leading researchers from the major fields related to robotics and nanostructures in agriculture.

It will promote discussion of ideas and development of shared vocabulary and understanding through presentation of key concepts in formal scientific talks, and informal discussions during breaks and social activities.

The workshop will take place August 30-31, 2021, in Akko knights’ hostel. The ancient port city of Acre (known to locals Akko) is an UNESCO heritage site with history dating back to the 15th century BCE.
