We also used this opportunity to organise open days for high school children in Geneva and an open day for the broader public. For both events a large number of participants turned up. It was rewarding to observe the enthusiasm of the participants and especially that of the younger participants. This encourages us to continue our commitment to education, training and communi- cation. In this context I would also like to mention the Wright Colloquium 2002 « Entering the Nano-World » organised on November 18-22, 2002 by the H. Dudley Wright Foundation, on a topic close to the scientific interest of MaNEP. The main theme of this issue is Scanning Probe Microscopy, with one article for non-specialists and a scientific article by Dr. Morten Eskildsen on how this technique can be used to study the new superconductor MgB2. -
