Today, Mike Honda (D-San Jose) introduced HR 3235, the Nanotechnology Advancement and New Opportunities (NANO) Act, comprehensive legislation for nanotech development in the US. Mike Honda has been a long-time supporter of nanotechnology and I was fortunate to meet him in person at a Foresight Senior Associates Gathering in 2004, at which he gave a talk. A report, "Thinking Big About Thinking Small", was released concurrently by the Blue Ribbon Task force on Nanotechnology, a group of California industry experts who made a series of recommendations in the crafting of the bill. The United States is currently the world leader in nanotechnology research, but China, Russia, and the EU and spending billions to keep pace.
