Nano and Bio in Society Conference

Both nanotechnology and biotechnology are growth industries with vast potential to improve the human living condition. The lines between the two technologies are blurring, yet society is reluctant to embrace either technology. Why?
That's the question to be addressed at the Nano and Bio in Society Conference, August 9 and 10, 2006, at the Hyatt Regency, McCormick Place in Chicago.
By exploring the global impact of nano and biotechnology on society, the multiple roles of scientists will be explored – as philosophers, as entrepreneurs, and as the stewards of our future. Scientists from around the world and from a wide variety of industries will discuss their research and how its applications will impact not only their local society but affect our world.
I'll be there to present on the "Health Effects of Architectural Applications of Nanotechnology," and to bring you the latest developments in nano-bio convergence.
