Elegant anti-cancer nanotech from MIT

So glad to see my alma mater joining the club of schools doing beautiful nanotech research against cancer: “Imagine a cancer drug that can burrow into a tumor, seal the exits and detonate a lethal dose of anti-cancer toxins, all while leaving healthy cells unscathed. MIT researchers have designed a nanoparticle to do just that…… Continue reading Elegant anti-cancer nanotech from MIT

China's nano productivity and goals

On the Science magazine site: China’s Chunli Bai, often cited as the leader of China’s nano efforts, describes that country’s position and goals. Excerpt: “Another recent analysis of nanoscience productivity around the world ranked China at the top for the first 8 months of 2004.” A comment in Science Roundup, an e-newsletter for AAAS members:… Continue reading China's nano productivity and goals

Nanotech and cancer: more encouraging results

From the BBC, on work by Stanford’s Hongjie Dai: “Nanotechnology has been harnessed to kill cancer cells without harming healthy tissue. The technique works by inserting microscopic synthetic rods called carbon nanotubules into cancer cells. When the rods are exposed to near-infra red light from a laser they heat up, killing the cell, while cells… Continue reading Nanotech and cancer: more encouraging results

Nanotechnology weapons described in Jane's

Those of you familar with military matters know that Jane’s is a respected source of information in that area. So even though an expensive subscripion is required to read the full article by Andew Oppenheimer, it’s worth taking a look at their free abstract posted on the topic of nanotech weapons. Excerpt: “As with many… Continue reading Nanotechnology weapons described in Jane's
