Nanovip All things Nanotechnology – Nano Is The Futiure

Following research by Professor Bill Keevil at the University of Southampton showing that copper can significantly reduce the presence of MRSA, the University, in partnership with the Copper Development Association, is hosting a live experiment that will show the effectiveness of antimicrobial copper in preventing MRSA infections. Approximately seven million people worldwide acquire a healthcare-associated infection (HAI) each year, and ... Read More »

Evan Haning, wtop.com WASHINGTON – Nanotechnology is providing easier, safer and less expensive medical treatments for a variety of illnesses. The Glucowizzard is the size of a grain of rice. Inject it in a diabetic’s wrist and it will monitor blood sugar all day, sounding “pings” if levels get too high. Clinical trials for the Glucowizzard sensor are expected to ... Read More »

A new “templated growth” technique for fabricating nanoribbons of epitaxial graphene has produced structures just 15 to 40 nanometers wide that conduct current with almost no resistance. These structures could address the challenge of connecting graphene devices made with conventional architectures – and set the stage for a new generation of devices that take advantage of the quantum properties of ...

Theoretical Studies Of Metamaterials University of Southampton Photonics - Physics – Nanotechnology Metamaterials are manmade media with all sorts of unusual and useful functionalities (varying from negative refractive index to optical invisibility cloaks and quantum effects) that can be achieved by artificial structuring smaller than the length scale of light. This innovative and interdisciplinary research programme is funded for six ... Read More »

PhD Studentship in Nanostructured Biomaterials University of Bristol – School of Oral & Dental Sciences Tooth decay, or caries, is a common health complaint. Caries occurs due to infection of the tooth and surrounding area by bacteria. Current treatment methods for caries require the removal of diseased tooth tissue, and replacement with dental biomaterials, a “filling”. Fillings account for around ... Read More »
