Graphene’s Moment has Arrived

By Casey Luskin – Mind Matters

In the 1967 movie The Graduate, Dustin Hoffman plays a recent college grad trying to figure out what to do with his life. His graduation party includes a Bradley famous scene where a family friend takes him aside and offers sage advice: “I just want to say one word to you. Just one word.” The word? “Plastics,” with the older man further advising that “there’s a great future in plastics.” If COSM 2023 is right, then if The Graduate were remade today, that one word might very well be “graphene.”
