Vom 18. März 2010 bis zum 3. Oktober 2010 zeigt das Technoseum eine große Sonderausstellung zum Thema Nanotechnologie. Unter dem Motto „Nano! Nutzen und Visionen einer neuen Technologie“ werden verschiedene Phänomene der Nanowelt gezeigt, unter anderem, warum eine Lotus-Blüte immer sauber bleibt oder Geckos an der Wand entlanglaufen können. Die Besucher lernen die vielen verschiedenen Anwendungsgebiete der Nanotechnologie näher kennen: Von Krebstherapie über speziell beschichtete Oberflächen, die dadurch kratzresistent oder schmutz abweisend werden, bis hin zu Lebensmitteln, die Nanopartikel enthalten. Die Ausstellung will aber auch die Chancen und Risiken dieser Technologie aufzeigen.

== Das Gebäude ==
Das Museumsgebäude wurde von der Berliner Architektin [[Ingeborg Kuhler]] entworfen. Die Planungs- und Bauzeit dauerte von 1982 bis 1990.


==References==
Das Gebäude ist in weiß gehalten. Von außen betrachtet wirken die einzelnen Stockwerke wie schiefe Ebenen. Dahinter steht das Konzept des "arbeitenden" Museums. Das heißt, das Gebäude soll wie eine Einladung wirken, in einer abwärts verlaufenden "Raum-Zeit-Spirale" durch die Sozial- und Industriegeschichte des deutschen Südwestens zu wandern.

==External links==
Das Museum zeigt wie ein veredelter Rohbau sein Tragwerk. Das gilt allerdings nicht für den Kopfbau im Westen. Der Hauptteil des Gebäudes besteht aus einer Stahlskelett-Verbund-Konstruktion mit ausbetonierten Doppel-T-Stützen und -Trägern, die trotz schwerer Lasten und großer Spannweiten die erforderliche Tragfähigkeit und Steifheit gewährleistet.

Vorlage:Infobox officeholder Mary Jo White (born December 27, 1947) is the 31st and current Chairwoman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. She was the first woman to be United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, serving from 1993 to 2002.[1] On January 24, 2013, President Barack Obama nominated White to replace Elisse B. Walter as Chairwoman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.[2] She was confirmed by the Senate on April 8, 2013 and was sworn into office on April 10, 2013.[3][4] As of 2014, she is listed as the 73rd most powerful woman in the world by Forbes.[5]

Life and career

She earned an M.A. in psychology in 1971 from The New School for Social Research[6] and a law degree from Columbia Law School in 1974,[1] where she was a Writing & Research Editor of the Columbia Law Review.

White became Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York in December 1992, and in March 1993 was appointed by President Bill Clinton as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District. She is noted for having overseen prosecutions of John Gotti and the terrorists responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, chief among them Ramzi Yousef.

After President Clinton's controversial last day presidential pardons, she was appointed by new Attorney General John Ashcroft to investigate Marc Rich's pardon.[1]

For 10 years, she was chair of the litigation department at Debevoise & Plimpton.[7] The Huffington Post called her "a well-respected attorney who won high-profile cases against mobsters, terrorists and financial fraudsters over the course of nearly a decade as the U.S. attorney for Manhattan."[8]

It has been asserted summarily in Rolling Stone magazine that, among other duties at Debevoise, White has used her influence and connections to protect certain Wall Street CEOs from prosecution,[9] including a notable case involving the firing of Gary J. Aguirre for investigations into the CEO of Morgan Stanley executive John J. Mack.

In 2013, she was involved in the prosecution of Aaron Swartz as lawyer for JSTOR, where she asked the lead prosecutor to drop the charges.[10]
