>Catherine's prize is a trip to Svalbard, in the Arctic Circle north of the Norwegian mainland, to visit Statoil's giant Troll gas platform, where she will descend to the bottom of the North Sea.
wat? I didn't know we started drilling on the fucking north pole!
The troll platform is nowhere neat Svalbard.. goddammit new scientist, get it right..

Oh, nanobots you say, I guess those are nice too.

Nanobots are minature engineers.

Do you go to medical school for that? Or just more advanced degrees in nanotech?

Nanobiotechnology is a small field inside nanotechnology, which is only a masters/phD course in most colleges

For undergrad courses, bioengineering or chemical engineering are actually as close as you can get
