Nice article

Really nice article describing the ongoing Research at Penn's Nano-Bio Interface Center. The center was developed by NSF and given a whopping $11.4 million which can extend to $24 million. My advisor is also a part of the NBIC group and we are a part of the molecular motions sub-group.
The work we do deals with issues related to engineering of devices such as drug delivery systems, nanopumps, motors etc. Computational Nanotechnology, I beleive, has a bright future ahead.

Some interesting Nanotechnology based websites

Here are some of the interesting websites which give the latest news and information about "Nanotechnology".
"Nanotechnology" is the science of manipulating matter at the atomic and molecular level to make devices that would function at that scale.

Nanotech news:
1. Nanoapex
2. Smalltimes
3. Nanodot

Nanotech organizations
1. Foresight Institute
2. National Nanotechnology Institute

Nano blog
1. Howard Lovy

Nano has become a buzz word now and some people say that this would be bigger than the Industrial Revolution or the Internet boom. Well, we only have to wait and see if this happens. I certainly hope this happens since my career also depends on it. :-)

I shall put up some more links as and when I find something interesting.
