NANO IN LIFE SCIENCES AND MEDICINES

In life sciences and medicine, it means we are now becoming able to measure and make things on the level at which organisms in the living world, from bacteria to plants to ourselves, do most of their work. Being able to work at this scale doesn't just empower us in our control of the biological world, but also allows us to start borrowing from that world, leveraging the extraordinary inventions that nature has produced through billions of years of evolution.
