European nano-community looks into the future... More funding, better infrastructure Broad support (79%) is expressed for a significant increase in funding for nanotechnology in the next EU RTD Framework Programme (FP7) compared to the level under FP6. Some respondents (25%) call for a doubling of the budget or more, while only 12% want the same budget or less. Divided opinions exist as to whether FP7 should be oriented more towards basic research or towards applied research; this division of opinion is reflected in the academic/industrial origin of respondents. Europe is seen to be lacking a coherent system of infrastructure, and boosting critical mass is identified as the most critical issue (90%). As well as endorsing the value of raising the awareness and exploitation of existing infrastructure, most respondents highlight the need for a new large-scale infrastructure at European (64%) and national/regional level (34%). A number of responses stress the importance of cross-disciplinary infrastructure in fields such as nanomedicine, nanomaterials and information technology/nanoelectronics. Strategic needs Concerns regarding human resources are widely expressed, with almost half of the participants fearing a shortage of skilled personnel for the nanotechnology sector within ten years and a further quarter forecasting shortages in as little as five years. The survey responses identify the development of nanotechnology education and training as particularly urgent: 90% of ...
'What is the greatest discovery made by chemistry in the last 100 years?'
At an event marking the five-year anniversary of the Wake Forest University Center for Nanotechnology and Molecular Materials, Wake Forest Professor David Carroll discusses the future of nanotechnology research at the University and around the world.
Dr. Mohamed Abdel-Mottaleb Nanotechnology Program Director - Nile University CEO of SabryCorp Ltd. for Science and Development Nanotechnology is the next scientific & engineering revolution it means that our design scale is going down to the nanometer. Have you heard of Intel's 45nm processor? Do you know that mean the length of the transistor has become 45nm? Nanotechnology, shortened to "Nanotech", can be applied to every known field not just electronics. For example NASA has designed a plane that can fly exactly like a bird using nanotechnology. There are several other applications of nanotech that are already out and about like: The SD-flash memory, the life straw, Aerogel, self-cleaning paint, ColorMatic monitoring of buildings, etc. The two main equipments involved in developing nanotech are; STM (Scanning Tunneling Microscope) and AFM (Atomic Force Microscope). The Nile University intends on starting a nanotechnology program in 2010.
Liffewave brings new New Pain Relief Technology even for the most chronic pain. For the mild and temporary stimulation of Acupuncture points Imagine rapid & drug-free pain relief. Now imagine its yours with LifeWave Patches. LifeWaves exclusive non-transdermal patch system utilizes new technology to gently stimulate acupuncture points literally improving the flow of energy in the body for improvement of pain and discomfort within minutes! NEW PAIN RELIEF TECHNOLOGY Were all accustomed to thinking that we have to put something into our body (like vitamins) to improve our health. Its been known for thousands of years that specific frequencies of light can cause specific changes within the human body. For example, when we go out in the sun, a frequency of light causes our body to make Vitamin D. Lifewave IceWave patches use this knowledge to stimulate acupuncture points on the body for improving the flow of energy and producing drug-medicine. A practitioner will typically stimulate acupuncture points on the body with needles or pressure to improve sleep, relieve pain and discomfort, and promote good health. The self-adhesive LifeWave IceWave patches utilize the principles of acupressure to gently stimulate points on the body that have been used to balance and improve the flow of energy in the human body for thousands of years. The result is a natural way of improving your overall health without any drugs, stimulants or needles entering the body. The self-adhesive LifeWave ...
The Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility at The University of California, Irvine (INRF UCI) is dedicated to developing and promoting micro and nano technology through research, education and outreach. The INRF advances multidisciplinary research through fostering communication between traditionally distant fields such as bioscience and engineering and by enlisting researchers from diverse backgrounds. The facility is a 8600 square foot class 100/1000/10000 clean room equipped with all the major devices for micro and nano fabrication. Capabilities include such diverse disciplines such as MEMS, biology, chemistry, optics and physics equipped with all the major devices for micro and nano fabrication. Our facilities are available to our distinguished faculty and students along with other academic institutions and industry. We welcome you to visit us, take a tour and join us in performing high quality research at our world class facility to engineer the microworld.

Dr. Mohammed Abdel-Motteleb -- Nile University Nanoscience offers a rare opportunity for emerging economies, specifically the Middle East region, to close the scientific gap between itself and the well established industrialized markets. It is a new and invigorating science that offers many exciting possibilities for innovative and cost-effective solutions for issues common to emerging markets. On one hand, it is of great importance that the emerging markets realize and capture this rare opportunity to accelerate growth based on scientific and industrialized bases. On the other hand, emerging market leaders must be very selective in choosing the areas within the nanotech domain to focus their already slim resources on. In the Middle East, the primary selection of these areas will greatly influence how the region will develop over the next few decades. The selection should be focused on areas where the region already has established some competencies and will be able to compete. In this presentation, an overview of nanotechnology applications in different industrial sectors and current initiatives in the Middle East will be presented in addition to an overview of nanotechnology programs in Egypt.
