This essay addresses the burgeoning field of nanomedicine that has evoked enormous interest among physical and biological scientists and that has already attracted hundreds of millions of dollars of research funding. The great appeal of nanomedicine is based on using the unique properties of materials on the nanoscale to address challenging problems in medical diagnosis and therapy. While questions have been raised about possible toxicities of nanomaterials, as well as the ethical and economic implications of applying these powerful, but expensive, technologies to health care, for the most part nanomedicine has enjoyed enthusiastic support from researchers, from funding agencies, and from the public. However, to what extent will the promise [More..] | |

The History of Nuclear EnergyAlthough they are tiny, atoms have a large amountof energy holding their nuclei together. Certainisotopes of some elements can be split and will releasepart of their energy as heat. This splitting is calledfission. The heat released in fission can be used tohelp generate electricity in powerplants.Uranium-235 (U-235) is one of the isotopes thatfissions easily. During fission, U-235 atoms absorbloose neutrons. This causes U-235 to becomeunstable and split into two light atoms called fissionproducts. [More..] | |
