In the 7th episode of the first season of the Good Doctor, a patient's _______ malfunctioned causing him to experience increased risk of stroke and heart failure. What type of biomaterial is this?
PACEMAKER
Researchers have devised an innovative way to make an ultra-high material-efficient and inexpensive solar cell using semiconductor __________. These nanomaterials help push to cheaper and more efficient solar cells.
Nanowire
He is known as the “Father of Biochemical Engineering”
Elmer L. Gaden Jr.
It is a thermoplastic “addition polymer” made from a combination of propylene monomers. This polymer is ideal for use in food packaging and food storage that's made to hold hot items or be heated it has a chemical formula of (C3H6). What do you call this polymer?
Polypropylene
The prefix “nano” comes from
a) French word meaning billion
b) Gaelic word meaning dwarf
c) Spanish word meaning particle
d) Latin word meaning invisible
e) None of these
NONE OF THESE (Greek word meaning dwarf not Gaelic)
During the sixth episode of the the first season of The Good Doctor, Shaun Murphy performed an experimental procedure on a patient who broke his leg due to a car accident. What application of biomaterials is this procedure?
BONE CEMENT/CEMENTING
Researchers have used a ________ to focus light onto a single semiconductor nanobox. This approach will enhance the utility of quantum repeater technology currently under development for advanced communication and data storage.
Nano-antenna
Who developed nanosensors back in 1990 with his research at IBM Sindelfingen (Germany) that led to basic technologies necessary for batch processing of silicon AFM cantilever probes.
Dr. Olaf Wolter
Common name for carbon 60 (C60)
Buckyball or buckminsterfullerene
What are the four types of nanomaterials?
Carbon Based Materials, Metal Based Materials, Dendrimers & Composites
In the hit series “Grey's Anatomy,” it featured Dr. Cristina Yang performing a heart procedure using this device in the Valentine's Day episode. This biomaterial device is currently undergoing clinical trials in the United States, is a minimally-invasive, catheter-based treatment for heart failure.
THE PARACHUTE
Researchers have shown that the 2D material of ___________ can control the polarization of light more precisely than ever before. This nanomaterial could light up future telecommunications.
Black Phosphorus
He is widely regarded for his contributions to medicine and biotechnology. He is considered a pioneer of many new technologies, including controlled release systems and transdermal delivery systems, which allow the administration of drugs or extraction of analytes from the body through the skin without needles or other invasive methods.
Robert Samuel Langer, Jr.
Most pans nowadays are nonreactive and almost have a frictionless surface that is convenient to use and clean. What do you call the polymer used in coating pans that makes it nonstick?
Polytetrafluoroethylene
If you were to shrink yourself down until you were only a nanometer tall, how thick would a sheet of paper appear to you?
a) 100 kilometers
b) 900 meters
c) 170 kilometers
d) 170 meters
e) 900 kilometers
170 kilometers
An average sheet of paper is approx. 0.1 mm thick; in other words: 100,000 nanometers. Let's assume the average height of a person to be 1.7 meters. If this person is shrunk to be only 1 nanometer tall, the thickness of a sheet of paper would be 100,000 times taller and therefore appear to be 170 km thick.
This is an American science fiction media franchise that involves nanomachines, referred to as nanoprobes, which are used by the Borg to assimilate individuals into their collective. Moreover, there is also a scene that Wesley’s experiment led to nanites developing a collective intelligence and interfering with ship systems.
STAR TREK
When a material is implanted into the body, its surface is rapidly changed. There is a fast sequence of reactions in which proteins of increasing molecular weight are deposited. This sequential deposition is known as?
Vroman effect
She is a present chemical engineer that has a Goddess-face. She teaches Materials Science and Engineering and the whole solar system loves her.
