Nanotech Frontiers: American Public Bullish on Nanotech
Nearly 90 percent of Americans believe that continued U.S. global leadership in technology is important to the nation's economy, and more than 76 percent believe that funding for research into the new fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology should be a priority of both federal and state governments.
In an online survey of 400 respondents conducted by Golin/Harris International Inc. (Chicago), 60 percent said the government should increase current funding levels for nanotechnology research.
