What Will The Future Of Nanotechnology Look Like In 5 Years?
Implications and consequences of a nanotechnology “future world” — are you ready?
The Center for Nanotechnology in Society has found that people respond differently to nanotechnology depending on the application. Public commentators are more favorable to the use of nanotechnology in energy than in health applications
This suggests that any public calls for nanotechnology regulation may differ depending on the application. Public discussion of nanotechnology has typically been more open than previous advanced technologies such as nuclear power or genetic engineering. [Sources: 4, 9]
After more than 20 years of fundamental research in nanoscience and more than fifteen years of concentrated research and development within the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI, nanotechnology applications are bringing expected and unexpected results in nanotechnology that promise to benefit society.
