Nanotechnology injects into living human cell

Foresight advisor John Gilmore brings our attention to the use of nanotechnology to inject a nanoscale cargo directly into a human cell. Lynn Harris writes in Science@Berkeley about work by Alex Zettl and team: The prick of a flu shot may momentarily sting, but the penetration of the needle does no lasting harm to the… Continue reading Nanotechnology injects into living human cell

June 30 deadline for Feynman Prize in Nanotechnology nominations

Foresight will be issuing our own release, but our partner SME got theirs out first, so here it is. Please make your nominations by June 30. It’s easy, and it’s okay to nominate your own research. Feynman Prizes in Nanotechnology Nominations due June 30 Top Nanotech Researchers to be Honored at Productive Nanosystems Conference DEARBORN,… Continue reading June 30 deadline for Feynman Prize in Nanotechnology nominations

Nanotechnology for nerve cell regeneration

Here at Foresight we have members with paraplegia and at least one with quadraplegia — it would be great if nanotechnology could help. Advanced nanotech should have cell repair abilities, but what can be done sooner? Medical News Today reports on promising current research: The ability to regenerate nerve cells in the body could reduce… Continue reading Nanotechnology for nerve cell regeneration
