In his 1986 book, Engines of Creation , K. Eric Drexler set down the long-term aim of nanotechnology – to create an assembler , a microscopic robot that could construct products from a stock of atoms and molecules. For the last two decades, researchers who recognized the benefits of achieving molecular manufacturing have used top-down and bottom-up methods to develop molecular machines....

... a lively debate on nanogoo and the media hype and parallel scare stories that have emerged since K Eric Drexler’s first proclamations about nanobots following on from Feynman's famous room at the bottom lecture. We’ve all read the grey goo headlines but we’ve also seen the hype regarding what nano has to offer. I often tell people it's nothing special, just stuff that happens to be...

5 things you didn't know: nanotechnologyTiny robots that fight cancer? Shock-resistant and energy-absorbing body armor? Invisible disinfectants? Is this all science fiction or impending reality? The hype surrounding nanotechnology has waned since the early ‘80s when engineer Dr. K. Eric Drexler brought the concept to the forefront, but what began as a simple topic of conversation at physicists’...
