Nanotechnology's Future in East Tennessee: Small Science's Big Potential (and Notable Risks)

On October 26, in the UT Science and Engineering Research Building, UT's Energy, Environment and Resources Center and Center for Environmental Biotechnology will host a day-long symposium devoted to the exploration of nanoscience and nanotechnology. The symposium, which is free and open to UT faculty, staff, students, and others interested in this burgeoning field of science, will address nanotechnology’s potential, ways to boost the profile of nano research and development in East Tennessee, and environmental and public policy concerns.

A special 12-page edition of EERC’s quarterly newsletter InSites is devoted to nanotech research and development taking place at UT. You can access the newsletter here <http://eerc.ra.utk.edu/insites/ins12-2.html>.
