Carbohydrates constitute the most abundant class of biomolecules on Earth. They are “global players” and indeed play many roles. They store energy and water. They serve as metabolic intermediates. They function as stable, raw materials or as intelligent, bioengineered products. They are even active in “social media”, that is, they mediate communication between cells and they store information b...

This work is focused on reviewing the theoretical vision of physicist Richard Feynman about nanoscience and nanotechnology, giving continuity to his ideas in proper context physics laws that has led nanotechnology become robust active sciences. Some implications as a general-purpose foundational technology for all economic areas are discussed. aspects related interactions between fields mathema...

Legislation is a form of governance that directs attention and prescribes action. Within the domain of nanoscience, the US 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act contains mandates not only for rapid development for economic competitiveness but also for responsible implementation, which is required to take place by integrating societal considerations into research and developme...
