Open Access journals for nanotechnology and other topics

A collection of open access journals on a variety of topics provides a very useful entry point to the rapidly growing collection of scientific, technical, and scholarly research that is not hidden behind pay walls.

Nanotrain uses molecular motors and DNA nanotechnology controls

Using DNA nanotechnology to control and organize molecular motors and the molecular tracks that they run on, a novel nanotrain transports molecular cargos tens of micrometers.

Upcoming Book Explores Nanomedical Device and Systems Design

A new book by Frank Boehm explores the challenges, possibilities, and visions of nanomedical device and systems design.

Graphene nanoribbon senses passage of individual bases of DNA

A nanoribbon transistor no thicker than the distance between adjacent DNA bases provides high resolution sensing of DNA passage through nanopores, perhaps leading eventually to rapid DNA sequencing.

Nanoparticle therapy for incurable brain cancer effective in mice

Gold nanoparticles densely coated with RNA molecules intended to silence a gene essential for an incurable brain cancer proved effective in mice engrafted with human glioblastoma multiforme tumor.

Adding more chemical interactions to DNA nanotechnology

Modifying DNA strands with lipid-like molecules opens more possibilities for designing DNA structures for drug delivery and other purposes.

Computational design of protein-small molecule interactions

A major advance in the computational design of proteins that bind tightly to specific small molecules will facilitate several technologies, possibly including the development of atomically precise manufacturing.

Building a hub for nanotech advancement

Nanotechnology draws from physics, chemistry, engineering, computation, etc., and this multi-disciplinary nature has served as a major speed bump in achievement of envisioned nanotech goals. There has been substantial concern that the U.S. is lagging behind other countries in nanotech R&D. Now researchers, companies, and politicians are coming together to create a much-needed physical hub… Continue reading Building a hub for nanotech advancement

Circuits of graphitic nanoribbons grown from aligned DNA templates

How complex could circuits be made using precisely positioned DNA nanostructures as templates to grow graphene nanoribbons?

Precise mechanical manipulation of individual long DNA molecules

“Molecular threading”, a nanotechnology developed by Halcyon Molecular and now owned by Aeon Biowares, enables precise placement of individual long molecules of DNA, either for sequencing or for nanofabrication of novel DNA nanostructures.
