Hello again - last one for tonight. It's from the same sentence - this time it's the word "Kleinstkosmos".
Many thanks for any suggestions!
"An der „Forschungsuniversität" mit ihren tausend Wissenschaftlern entsteht gerade eine einmalige „Nanofabrik", in der Biologen, Chemiker, Physiker gemeinsam in den Kleinstkosmos vorstoßen."

Comment: "I don't think this means "microcosm" here - I think it means the "world of particles", so I used "microcosmos"."
