Nanomaterial research & occupational health versus EHS in general – trend chart on the ICON blog

A chart released this week on the ICON blog  compares the volumetry of nanomaterial research publications of relevance to occupational health with that of nanotechnology environmental, health and safety (EHS)  research publications in general, among publications registered in ICON’s nanoEHS database. It was built using the Nano-EHS Database Analysis Tool available on the International Council On Nanotechnology [...]

Nanoarchitecture.net

Nanoarchitecture.net is a blog aiming at “informing architects and designers about nanotechnology” with a focus on “emerging developments in nanotechnology that might revolutionize design“  and “works that are enabled by nanotechnology” (RSS feed).

Separating the hype from the buzz

David Berube regularly releases on his blog (NanoHype: Nanotechnology Implications and Interactions) interesting short notes about the latest significant nanotech news, what he calls “separating the hype from the buzz”. Follow these owing to the blog RSS feed here or on Nanocolors @ Netvibes here.

Nanotechnology Law

Nanotechnology Law is the 3rd blog presented on Nanocolors specifically dedicated to nanotech laws & regulations issues. It presents itself as “a Journal of Nanotechnology Law and Policies, dedicated to assess legal implications of nanoscale technologies and the emerging molecular nanotechnology“. After a long period of inactivity between September 2007 and March 2009 (!), a [...]

Nanoscience and Nanosociety

Nanoscience and Nanosciety is the “unofficial” multiauthor blog of the Center for Nanotechnology in Society (CNS) at University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). RSS feed is available here.

Gregor Wolbring’s blog

Gregor Wolbring’s blog deals with a lot of nano-related topics : Nano and Nano- Bio, Info, Cogno, Neuro, Synbio, Geo, Chem… Here is the corresponding RSS feed.
