Nanopolis World of Knowledge platform presents recent scientific and technological breakthroughs in the field of matter exploration at atomic scale in a widely accessible manner. The core of the educational content (~ 2500 multimedia animations) comes from the Nanopolis encyclopedic series (http://nanotech.nanopolis.net, http://synchrotron.nanopolis.net, http://neutrons.nanopolis.net ).

Additional materials will be added through the development of the "Exploring Bio-Nanotechnology" encyclopedia and through the Nanopolis real-time conversion engine. They will be accessible to users worldwide following the pay-per-view philosophy. Universities and learning groups benefit of special accounts allowing them to organize the existing multimedia materials into online courses, to assign students to the courses and to evaluate them by online quizzes.
