Meanwhile, an article on managing investment expectations includes some discussion of public understanding of nano Ronald Sandler, assistant professor of philosophy at Bostons Northeastern University, has tracked several studies on public perceptions of nanotechnology and addresses the level of understanding for the field. The issue has the usual hardcore technical news SiGe transistor operates at frequencies above GHz, Method creates hollow nanocrystals, nanopore technique sequences DNA Bacterial detection using quantum dot nanocomplexes, Miniature airborneparticlemass monitors, Dotinwell quantum dot photodetectors.

dont think the delays are due to closer scrutiny wish they were! Christine concerned public Says 17th, at pm So who is responsible for Morgellons? it is obviously nano out of control.. work in technologyheavy field, and significant majority of my colleagues are wellread and pay attention to the news. The examiner only spends hours per patent on average looking at prior so Ive been told.

Christine Peterson Says 25th, at pm The first commenter above makes good point, but Ive heard delay for nanotech patents of four years, and that just seems too long. similarif not greaterignorance pervades the populace of the city in which live. At least, not here in America. According to the report, these figures indicate that bottleneck at the USPTO is limiting inventors ability to secure intellectual property rights. Sandler is an ethics researcher whose work on nanotechnology is funded by NSF.

Christine Peterson Says 25th, at pm The first commenter above makes good point, but Ive heard delay for nanotech patents of four years, and that just seems too long. According to the report, these figures indicate that bottleneck at the USPTO is limiting inventors ability to secure intellectual property rights. On the topic of nanotech intellectual property, the issue cites recent report from Lux Research and Foley & Lardner, commenting The report finds that the rate of new nanotech patent issuances stalled at 4 in after exceeding 20 in the last few years.

At least, not here in America. can see his answer being applicable to Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, India, and perhaps select European countries. similarif not greaterignorance pervades the populace of the city in which live. work in technologyheavy field, and significant majority of my colleagues are wellread and pay attention to the news. Third, does the public understand that nanotechnology is likely to be the platform for the next revolution in technology and industry and therefore have significant social impacts? The data on this so far is that the public largely does.
