2nd Phase: Workshops building the micro-nanorobotics roadmaps

14:10 – 15:30 Workshop on dedicated topics

Objective: define key-challenges in the two following wide domains, divided in two groups:

- - Micronanorobotics for Healthcare & in-vitro applications

- - Micro-nanorobotics for microtech & nanotech industries and labs

Management Teams of the workgroups:

Application Domain	Leader	Reviewer	Time skipper
Manufacturing	Michael Gauthier	Dave Cappelleri	Tobias Tiemerding
Healthcare	Brad Nelson	Metin Sitti	Stéphane Régnier

Process:

- 5 minutes: presentation of the domain by the leader, definition of the time skipper and of the reviewer.

- 10 minutes: first round table: presentation of the challenges and topics identified by each participant.

- 10 minutes: classification of the response and selection of one to three topics.

- 40 minutes: focused discussion on selected topics identifying the key current and future challenges.

- 10 minutes: preparation of the synthesis.

Material: paper board, post-its, felt pens

15:30 - 16:00 Break

16:00 - 17:00 Synthesis and Conclusion

Each group leader will present a synthesis in 5 minutes of the discussion following by 10 minutes discussions.

Process after the workshop:

- Group leader and reviewer will provide a writing synthesis of the meeting before October 3th

- A consolidated draft document describing the international roadmap of micro-nano-robotics will be sent to all the participants by Michael.

- Comment and improvement will be available during two months

- Final version should be available in December
