Dangers of Molecular Nanotechnology (MNT) Prt 9

www.uawri.org The Results Leading researchers across the state and nation gathered at the Winthrop Rockefeller Institute in January 2009 for the first nanotechnology conference sponsored by the Rockefeller Institute. The Nanotechnology for Health Care Conference explored the role of nanomaterials in faster, better drug delivery; in diagnosing and attacking cancer; combating heart disease; and knitting broken bones. One goal of the conference was to establish an organized team that takes advantage of talent and tools within the state and develop a strategy that would enable the team to compete for a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Center of national significance, thus placing Arkansas at the forefront of nanotechnology research in health care. The Nanotechnology for Health Care Conference was the first of two nanotechnology conferences funded by the Winthrop Rockefeller Institute. The second is scheduled for October 2009. The plan is to develop yearly, self-sustaining nanotechnology research conferences hosted at the Rockefeller Institute. HEADON: Global Dialogue on Nanotechnology and the Poor: Opportunities and Risks Meridian Institute, with support from The Rockefeller Foundation, International Development Research Centre, and UK Department for International Development, has convened the Global Dialogue on Nanotechnology and the Poor: Opportunities and Risks (GNDP). Goals of the GDNP include: raising awareness about the implications of nanotechnology for the poor …
